    Of/from - another discussion about the Crete Council

    For the repose of Robert, and the comfort of his family

    I just saw him last week. He had come into town for the weekend and came to Church, where he and his family were received 10 years ago or so (and bringing his windowed mother back in Texas into the Church there). Another U of C'er, he was enjoying quite the academic career-in Classics no...

    My mother told me today that a Muslim gave her a Qur'an at the Fourth of July parade in the small Chicago suburb (pop. below 60,000) she lives in. The local mosque had a float in the parade. The Orthodox had none. This in a town of about 50,000 people in less than 15 square miles, where we...
