IN MEMORIUM

BOB HARRINGTON
1927 - 2017

Hi, my name is Bob Harrington; welcome to my official website.  I've been know as "the Chaplain of Bourbon Street" from the French Quarter of New Orleans across the country, since Mayor Victor Schiro made that an official proclamation in 1963.  I ministered through my office to the people of Bourbon Street for over 20 years.  Billy Graham once said that I was "bringing a witness for Jesus Christ to the middle of hell."  It certainly was different than the stain glass walls of a church, but somehow I believed that's where Jesus would minister, so I ministered in His name to the people that worked, lived or just visited on Bourbon Street.  I never ran out of prospects.
