Police nun O'Connell guards Chicago streets with faith and gun
Maureen O'Connell, a Chicago police officer and nun, blends law and vows in a rare dual calling. For 11 years she hunted child abusers and gamblers while balancing religious duties, once ranking fifth of 1500 on the police candidate list. She says a gun is a tool, not her creed, and she would use it if needed.

Cupcake ministry battles casino era in Atlantic City
In Atlantic City the Rev. Russell Gale of St James Episcopal Church uses a cupcake stand near Resorts International to raise funds and offer counsel as casinos reshape faith. Church attendance declines, but casino prosperity fuels some parishes while others, including St Nicholas of Tolentino, report smaller crowds. Catholic services draw more attendees than Protestant ones, and clergy cite urban disruption and moral hazards from street life near casino districts.
