Memphis Trip

I got back today from a short support trip to Elvis' hometown and my birthplace, Memphis, TN. I introduced the church plant vision at Independent Presbyterian Church on Wednesday night after their fellowship supper, and then spent all day Thursday at Republic Coffee, where friends dropped by all day to catch up. Here are some pictures from the short visit.

The first "real house" Kristy and I lived in (rented for 3 months in Memphis when we moved there in Jan. 1995 for me to work at Independent Pres.)

This was my grandparent's home before they died in the 80s. I practically grew up there. Imagine a 5 year old McKay rolling around in the front yard with best friend, Josh, thinking that giant trees were falling on us—a favorite game of ours. : )
