Message of the Day – A County Fair Booth

August 10, 2008 By: Cal Skinner Category: Dan Guttschon, First United Methodist Church, Gideons, ican Party, McHenry County College, McHenry County Fair, McHenry County Republicans, Mike Shields

Besides the cows and pigs and rabbits, turkeys and rabbits, there were a fair number of religious groups at the McHenry County Fair.

I saw two familiar faces.

They had handed out a number of Spanish Bibles at the immigration seminar held at the First United Methodist Church of Crystal Lake.

I also saw the two offering Bibles to McHenry County College students. I saw some accept the gift.

At the county fair they were right next to the Republican Party booth.

Their names?

Mike Shields, whom you see here handing out a Bible, and Dan Guttschon. The two men live in the Harvard area.
