 Curran's way of life was to keep working at his job while spending several hours in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament.He then would go out among the homeless who would congregate in downtown Boston, especially around the Boston Common, and distribute peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, coffee, underwear, T-shirts, and white cotton socks.As other men came to join him, the community eventually relocated to a house in the Mission Hill section of Boston, among the city's poorest.
