Chicago!

Well, after a ten hour drive from my house to Chicago, I finally arrived last night. I LOVE it here in the States - Christian radio is on every second station, there are FREE refills at McDonald's, and everything here is way cheaper than in Canada. Not that I don't like Canada, but I totally understand why U.S. Citizens are so in love with their country :)

On Sunday, Mom and I are planning to go to Harvest Rolling Meadows - a huge church here in Chicago. I'm really hoping that we'll be able to go, because it'll be another opportunity to bring my mom to church.

I realize I haven't written in a long time - last week was pretty crummy for me. I made plans with friends, but those got cancelled. I had to go to the doctor and to the dentist (on the same day!). But the worst part of the week was telling my non-Christian friend that I wouldn't be able to date him. I know it was the right thing to do (2 Corinthians 6:14) but that didn't make it any easier. On the plus side, I got to evangelize to him, which was by far the best experience EVER.

I'll try and sneak onto the computer here a few more times while in Chicago. Enjoy your day!
