Old St. Patrick's Church: Chicago Renaissance Story

Old St. Patrick's Church: Chicago Renaissance Story

Mike Leonard ('The Ride of Our Lives,' 'Catholicism') tells the inside story of how the west Loop’s St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church, known to residents as Old St. Pat's, transformed itself from an empty church in a declining neighborhood into a Chicago hub of worship, culture, social life, education, and service -- revitalizing a then-struggling West Loop.
