June 1st-Carcassonne church anniversary, they had two that were baptized. An exciting time for the church in Carcassonne.June 4th - Our year end business meeting for the AVF. I was officially approved as the president of the AVF, in spite of a little opposition by some who were worried about the fact that I was a pastor.
June 5th - Andrew's 8th birthday.
June 6th - Our English Camp/VBS team arrived. Had a crash course in French and supper with them.
June 7th - Hang out with the team in the morning. Afternoon went to a wedding where I lead the ceremony. What a great evening. I did the services in French and English since the husband was french and the wife was from Singapore. Great time meeting new people, had some in depth spiritual conversations. Owner of the castle wants to offer my services to other married couples that use the castle for marriage. Castle was near Albi, about two hours from our house because of some roads closed for construction.

June 9-12 - English camp each evening. With various activities during the day. Camp went real good and was well attended with about 25 each night. During the day had other activities with the team...taking baked goods to the firefighters and police men, helping the elderly with their gardening and house work. A great week.
