I can't believe how fast the days are going by. I remember planning for my parents and the girls to come to Chicago months ago, and now they have already come and left!
They got here on Friday and spent a couple of hours at the aquarium with me before heading out to dinner at Maggiano- an Italian restaurant downtown. It was AMAZING - both the fish and the food. We got a "family style" dinner which included a salad, 3 appetizers, 2 pastas and 2 chicken dishes...and 2 desserts! The food was awesome and there was plenty left-over for me to bring back to IIT! :)
I spent Friday night with them in the North suburbs, then came back to IIT Saturday morning. I spent the morning here, then met them downtown for lunch at Giadonos with a few students that wanted to come.
I hung out at IIT last night while they went North to hang out with one of Greg's friends that lives up there.
This morning I went to the Chinese Christian Union Church in Chinatown! It was a contemporary service and pretty laid back - Once again, we were all welcomed and greeted and even asked to stand as guests.
Today we had our car wash outreach down at the Agape Center. For a few hours we washed peoples cars for free, talked to them, and just hung out and had a really great. I think 60 cars came through so around over 100+ hung out with us today.
The students have their second week of minstry sites this week...another busy week ahead. Hope you all had a great weekend!
