great weekend

The church weekend was a great success.




All the people at the Parole de Vie centre were so welcoming and helpful.


Saturday after lunch we all went for a walk round the medieval city of Dinan.

Early evening bible study with Rob (from parole de vie) leading the study.


After the evening meal a fun evening and some board games.











Sunday worship service at Dinan. Afternoon we did the assault course !! still got one huge bruise to prouve it. Hope you like the photos !!

Indian summer

We're having great weather this week. Looks like it will be nice for our church weekend. The church is going to Parole de Vie in Dinan(Britany). Not everyone from the church is able to go but we praythat those going will have a really good time.
Loic has his first big match in national division off to Orleans this morning at 9.00 and probably back at 9 tonite. Ben has settled back into lycee and is finding the work abit easier than last year. Seb has now done one month on the production line and is looking forward to getting his first pay cheque !!!

Sunny Mayenne

A glorious week with sunshine and blueskies! Alison is getting her English lessons sorted out for this academic year, I'll be doing a few hours a week as well by public demand !!!!
Good to be back and into weekly programme. At the Bible study last nite on the Veracity of Scripture I was struck again by the privilage we have of having the Bible in our own language and with no ristrictions on its use. For Sunday I am chairing the worshio service and want to home in again on the importance of the Bible and its authority in our lives.
The association Maison de la Bible ( House of the Bible) ( I am on the French national committee) has just brought out the Bible for 1€50, the price of a coffee ! The aim is to have a mass distribution of Bibles with a new and faithful translation of the text.

There will also be a new young people's bible with inserts to help understand and ask question and linked to a web site
