The Chinese New Year Parade had its share of dignitaries. My daughters caught the vision of handing out Gospel tracts to politicians as they drove by. If you need to be reminded of the purpose of this foolhardy endeavor, click here and here.
L.A.’s own embattled Mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, was overjoyed to receive his tracts from my eldest daughter D.D.
