To market, to market . . .
I don't know if I mentioned in the last post that we did not have Bible Study Thursday evening. We did have a good visit with the pastor and his wife from Carcassonne. Friday I started my monthly report, which I will finish today. I also talked with another American missionary in France who is working near Paris. He gave a lot of good advice concerning the paperwork and process for getting you childs birth certificate and passport. We had a good time at the market Friday morning. We arrived at 8:30, the boys helped me carry everything. Edouard and I found a good spot and set up the booth. During the three hours that I was there. We talked to about 5 people. One elderly man stopped and talked with us. So sad that he had no clue about where he would spend eternity, and acted as if he didn't care. He was 93 years old. Edouard continued as I took the kids home for lunch. He had a couple of good contacts as well. I am looking forward to next week. Friday evening I enjoyed basketball practice. I wasn't as sore as the time before. Caleb went with me and had a wonderful time shooting baskets. He told me afterwards that he wants to go with me every time. Saturday, we went shopping, I needed some shoes for playing basketball which we found at a great price as a result of an "end of series" sell. We also stopped and looked at a pet store with the kids, we are thinking of getting a few more fish, because our big aquarium is lacking acivity with the few fish in it. After returning home, I went with a few of the kids to look at the large art exhibit here in town. It was really impressive and there is a lot of talent displayed. The most exciting events was the arrival of our paperwork for our visa, we now have an appointment with the immigration office. Angie planned on going to church Sunday morning, but the four hours sleep that she ended up getting changed her mind. I went with the kids and enjoyed the services. There were several first time visitors in the services. When we returned home, Angie had just woke up, we grabbed lunch and then I took a nap for a couple of hours. When I woke, I found that we had some guests come by. We took another walk down to Magrie to see the art and while I was there I bought some churros, which everyone loved. Today, it is back in the office, I hope to get the report sent out soon. Arianna has her one month doctors visit this afternoon. Attached pictures were taken at the art exhibit. God bless, JASON
