Day 7, Hartford (or as Shane says “Cannycut”)

June 29th, 2008 by Chris & Shane

(Woops, we forgot to post this one)
It’s almost too much fun.  Every town we go in is like a big reunion, with all sorts of communities converging to dream about the Kingship of Jesus.  But every city is also a gathering of new friends and political misfits – there’s no cookie-cutter mold, and not much preaching to the choir.  One fellow had served much of his life in the military, and came forward with tears in his eyes to thank us for putting words to things he felt deeply in his soul.  This was our only New England stop so folks were from lots of different states, and from right across the street.  Hartford was unique because it was hosted by an inner city school, and it was fantastic to see kids from the school and nearby neighbors in attendance.  We were hosted by the dynamic duo at the Catholic worker and Hartford City Mission (and the Vine), so we had Catholics and protestant evangelicals were dreaming and scheming together – good times… and our Canadian friends “Barn Owl” rocked out the intermission show (and gave us a taste of Canada to get us ready for tomorrow).

    Dang, I made it onto the blog! I think I was trying to do some sort of “Bye-see-you-in-a-month” thing there. Miss you all. Can’t wait for Philly.
