Reaching Villagers

fter five and a half years in the mission field, God allowed us to visit our family in Canada (He would have probably allowed us to go before, but we didn't ask). While we were away, Steven Daughtry from Colorado

came to take care of the people, the apartment and the cat. It was a real blessing for the church; everyone enjoyed his friendship and his love for the French people. Steven speaks French very well.

e are seeking opportunities to share the gospel of the kingdom. Halloween seems to be one. Halloween started just a few years ago in France. While the big stores are promoting with such force the kingdom of darkness (sorcerers, demons, murderers, dead bodies, blood, etc. ) we think it is time for us to introduce to them the kingdom of light. It's true that we don't have millions of dollars to promote it but we have the power of God and your prayers. So with our new cell leaders, we will do a presentation in their village and be salt and light. We hope it will be a starting point for more outreach in other villages.

e went to Quebec this summer and while we were there, we saw the same inheritance of humanism as in France. There are so many preconceptions about God, Jesus and the protestant church, that walls of ignorance stop the people to ear the Gospel. In the same time, their need of spiritual food has made them prey for the New Age movement and the false doctrines. We believe that somewhere the French Church is responsible for hiding the light. Although we are small as a church and lack workers, we are responsible to answer our call to be a light to the Nations.

October 15th Outreach in the village of Bourgheim
For our new converts (Christophe, Nicolas and Sebastien). These young Christians full of the joy of the Lord are only 15 years old. Their parents (non-Christians) are scared that we may be a cult. Pray for them and for peace for the parents.
We have an open door among the foreign students at the University, especially with the Chinese. This week, we started a Bible class.
