Born and raised in Mount Carroll, Illinois and I live currently in Rockford, Illinois. Except for time in the Service I’ve lived in Northwest Illinois all my life. (Unlike much of the Midwest, northwest Illinois is very hilly rather than flat. Scientists say the Glaciers during the Ice Age missed this relatively small area of the Midwest: eastern Iowa, southwest Wisconsin and northwest Illinois).
 
Live in the US, but originally from Canada.

Dad’s relatives came from France through Canada in the 1700’s
Mom’s relatives came from Holland and Russia.

My heritage is Mother White English and Father is Black Jamaican. No one has ever guessed right though. People have thought I was Spanish, Italian, Greek or Iranian.

Ah yes, that is one of the joys of being biracial. People always seem to guess Mediterranean or Middle Eastern heritage. It’s actually fun to count how many countries people think I’m from.

My actual heritage is Parsi on my dad’s side (they live in India but are originally from Iran) and Welsh on my mom’s side. I don’t blame anyone for not guessing that combo 😛
 
I have dual citizenshsip, American and Mexican, and I live in Mexico.
 
I grew up in Southern Wisconsin, but just moved to the capitol of Brazil, which is Brasilia. I will, most likely, be moving to a state in the south of Brazil called Santa Catarina within a couple years. This state is heavy in traditional Catholicism, and much less corrupted. I look forward to moving there. I am not accustom to a large, chaotic, sometimes dangerous city!

Peace,
Michael

Stop rubbing it in. 😛

I live near Wichita, Kansas, the proud diocese which holds over 60 seminarians. I am over 1/4 Irish, very German, and small amounts of French, Russian, and Scottish.
 
Canada of course in southern Ontario, the entire region falls under the London diocese , I was born and raised here but my parents and siblings moved from South Africa.
 
I’m American (of mostly Irish and German descent.)

I was born, raised, and currently live in in southern California.
 
I am an American (whatever that means now) I grew up in the NW Lived in Idaho, Washington, Montana. I currently reside in a part of the country that is horrid. I want out.

The Church here is amazing though. And it is nice to live in an area with a Catholic population that is rather large. The weather, the smoke, the semi trucks, the factories, the smell and the grim faced blue collar beaten down people are a tad bit much.

Waiting 2 weeks so that “Ed” can fix my satellite TV during football season is a little much as well.:rolleyes:

Someday I will get back to God’s country. Until then. I hold my breath when I walk outside.

I’ve been there. I can assure you, it is flat. flat as a pancake.

very hilly is what we skiers call 5000 ft vertical.

I have noticed many English on here as of late. Is there a campaign over there? How do people from other countries hear about CAF?
 
Born and raised in Sweden, but my heritage is “Flemish” (Belgium) and Polish… Yeah I know, pretty odd right… Oh the teasing my last name was subject to :rolleyes:
