May 2012: "A heart for france"
Prayer fodder
Friday we set up the hall and Saturday is our big day to bless over 500 women with the theme being ,"Blowing new breath into our loving relationships,". Please pray that all the different participants will be truly inspired, that the Holy Spirit will work wonders, that the music, theatre and dance will be edifying. May we, the organising committee, be united and harmonious.
Great weekend
It wasn't quite like the film ,"4 Weddings and a Funeral,"; but there were elements of that!
Saturday Pascal co-hosted a wedding blessing with the local Catholic priest in our church. It was a mixed marriage!
Saturday evening, I spoke to our Youth Group about Mission (am fairly well placed to speak on that subject!! ;) )

One of my work tables
This table partly represents my week.
The peonies came into bloom this week - a magnificient display of God's creativeness.
A creative man from our church was able to frame our Last Supper tapestry.
The exercise bike hasn't been used for weeks because I've been too busy then too tired!
The Pastorale
This is the French word for a gathering of pastors - perhaps it's also an appropriate image describing their rôle in the church.
My husband is joining the 40-odd pastors of our Union of churches this afternoon for 3 days of meetings & discussions. I'll go there tomorrow having made arrangements for our children. The central topic this time is the follow-up from the third Lausanne Congress at Cape Town and looking at how our churches conjugate social action issues with evangelism.
