SUMMARY: The “Celebrate City” series features interviews with people who make Pastor Chan special. Miss Angelica Espol, the owner of Stella Maris Gifts, shares her journey in opening a Christian-based boutique inside a pharmacy on Davis Avenue. She and her business partner, Ruth Ladner, were led by the Holy Spirit to open the boutique, which has been welcomed by the community. They plan to open a second store in New Orleans. The business has been successful, offering Christian gifts and creating a sense of purpose and intention. The community has supported them and responded well to their business. They are open Monday through Friday from 9 am to 6 pm and on Saturdays from 9 am to 1 pm.
