Mid-Project Retreat

Woah, it's been a week since my last update already! Sorry! Things have been pretty crazy - in a good way.

It's been raining here almost all week, so there haven't been a lot of people on campus. We have had some great conversations, though! Lauren and I were also able to meet with Nari again. Such an answer to prayer! We went out for coffee, then just walked around, going to different stores. Such a great night!

English club last Monday was ridiculous! We had even more people this time - some returning and a lot of first-timers. It was great just sit around, play games, and help French students practice their English. I can't wait till the next one!

Friday night, we had another game night. A lot more French students came this time. We played epic games of Mafia with about 15 people, while others sat and talked or played other games. Many students said they can't wait to do it again.

Currently, we on mid-project retreat: a 3 day break from ministry. Saturday, we all went to Cassis. It was beautiful!! Some of us went hiking, and some just laid on the beach all day. I was one of the latter :)

Sunday, 4 of us were able to go to Carcassonne. We walked around the castle there for about 5 hours. It was absolutely breath-taking. I can't wait to share all my pictures with you! We were supposed to ride separate trains back to Montpellier, but God definitely blessed us with nice conductors. We asked them if we could ride an earlier train together, and even though one of them didn't speak English, he let us! I was amazed!

Please keep praying for our project.
- We have 2 weeks on campus left. Please pray we'll make the most of this time.
- We have 2 outreaches coming up. Please pray many French students will come and be interested in learning more about Christ!
- Pray for all the students we've become friends with. Pray that God will open their hearts and that they'll be eager to know Jesus!

Thanks so much for your prayers already! I can't wait to report all the great things God will do here this week!
