Welcome to the greatest city on Earth, Pastor Brontos!

Bloggin' Pastor Joel Brontos has accepted a call to suburban Chicago.

Pr. Brontos will be associate pastor and headmaster at St. Paul's Lutheran Church and School, Brookfield. Its pastor, the Rev. Walter Otten, is a powerful preacher and a warm supporter of the congregation where I was baptized and confirmed, Grace, at 28th and Karlov in the city.

Brookfield, of course, is the home of the larger of Chicago's two world-class zoos.

Three, if you count the City Council.

I envy Pr. Brontos the opportunity to root the Cubs home to a pennant. Cardinalidae delendae sunt! (Latin grammar corrected by Eric Phillips.)

Almost. It would be "delendae sunt."
