Saw you mentioned at Scott’s blog. It would have been great to have your team come downtown and visit Park Community Church, a church of about 1,200 20-40 year olds. Doing church in the city has its different challenges and is probably a lot like your church in Ireland (BTW — my wife and I took a year off and went around the world before kids and, being 90% Irish, enjoyed three weeks in Ireland! Hope you enjoyed Chicago — we think it is the coolest place to minsiter in all the world (of course I am biased). Check out our website at http://www.parkcommunitychurch.org
