On Thursday we finished preparing items for distribution. Then we headed back out and depleted our entire supply of New Testaments and DVDs!! We covered a couple of areas of Lyon which had not yet been reached. We did encounter a few "questioning eyes" upon us, but God was victorious and blessed us with many open doors. We ran around on the bus to run errands and then back to the center to prepare and enjoy a "dinner in" together at the center. Euros doesn't grow on trees either much to our dismay, and we are all budget people, ha ha!
We are all now either cleaning, building, cooking and organizing today. We have a big day tomorrow, up and out to an Arab market by 7am (YIKES!) back for church by 9:30am, a lunch for the entire church after service and then a Soiree for the gals - WHEW! We are very much looking forward to the chaos!
We said goodbye to our LU friends this afternoon, boo hoo! We had a lot of fun with them, and they helped us so much while here!
We are loving the responses to our blogs - thanks for all your prayers. Over and out and 10-4 good buddies............

So glad that you are seeing and feeling again what it is to be used by God is ways that build the Kingdom. Remember that it may be quiet, unnoticed ways, but building the Kingdom none the less. Praying for you each day!

Thanks for posting so often and keeping us informed! I'm checking every day and love to hear what I'm missing! Beautiful day here - in the 50s and sunny - we went Christmas shopping! Give hugs and our love to your hosts from me and my mom! Enjoy Paris! :)
Thanks for al the exciting news- I forget for a minute that I am not right there with you! Enjoy these last few days- I hope Matt is hammering away at something over there! Hugs to all- have a safe and NON-EXCITING flight home- no weather delays, no missing luggage, no one left in some distant city, no stop in Newark for any reason, no bickering for the window seat- see you soon! Love to the M's!!
This blog has really provided a 'nice peek into your lives on a mission in France.' My heart is filled with joy to know that you have been so successful in your work.
Beth, can you believe I actually woke up about 4 AM the other day and sensed that you all needed prayer? It was an awesome privilege to pray for each of you!
Be strong as you finish~ and know that 49 hours from this writing you will back in Columbus, OH, USA!
Godspeed!
