Artur Pawlowski
Artur Pawlowski was born on March 28, 1973 in a town called Kożuchów, Poland. Currently he is a street preacher in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. He operates a Christian organization and street outreach called Street Church which ministers to the homeless. He has been involved in politics advocating for the homeless, and has also spent much time in court due to charges laid against him by the Calgary Police Department.[1]
Recently, on October 24, 2013 he was covered by the National Post[2] stating that Calgary officials have a vendetta and was said to have pulled out a "thick sheaf of white papers from his briefcase" demonstrating the fact that he has had a lengthy battle for his rights to care for the homeless.
