Twenty years ago this month a nun and a lay volunteer who had been working with the homeless opened a small drop-in center on a busy downtown St. Paul street corner. The opening went unnoticed by most St. Paulites, but among the city's homeless population, word spread fast. The buzz was fueled by rumors that homeless guests could relax for hours at a time, enjoy a hot cup of coffee and even play the guitar. The new facility was called Listening House. Over the years Listening House has moved a couple times, not always by choice, and it has grown considerably. This morning St. Paul city leaders, past and present, will celebrate Listening House's 20th anniversary at the St. Paul Hotel. The event is also a fundraiser.
