the book fair, cicadas, leaders, and baptism

  • This Saturday and Sunday is the Printer’s Row Book Fair in Chicago. I’ve wanted to go to this for the past few years, but I think we may actually make it on Saturday. This could be dangerous…I’d better let Maggie hold onto the money.
  • For the past few months (pastor) Brian has been saying that cicadas are edible and that he wanted to eat one when they finally showed up. Well, I beat him to the punch. At a party last Saturday night, some guy I’d never met had a Tupperware full of bbq’ed cicadas. Wings, eyes, and all. Yes, it was crunchy. No, it didn’t taste like chicken.
  • Today I had lunch in Chicago with one of PCC’s elders who works in the city. We had a great conversation about future ministry at PCC and I walked away once again thanking God for the great leaders He’s blessed us with. Please pray for those at PCC who have been charged with leading the church.
  • We’ve got some baptisms coming up this Sunday. The staff is really excited about the stories we’ll be hearing from those being baptized. You really, really don’t want to miss it! Every baptism is an awesome experience, but I think the stories we’ll hear on Sunday will be particularly energizing.
