A Long Awaited Update...

Sorry all! It's been a while since I updated - it's not so much that I've been incredibly busy (although some days that's the case), but I don't often get to the internet and when I do I'm easily distracted. Well, we've done a lot this month - done things with the youth at the church, attended many seminars in both English and French (if I try, I can more or less understand the pastor when he speaks - but it's very tiring), visited an international church on a couple of Sundays (English worship...so nice for a change), engaged strangers in Starbucks..... let's see, what else - on Monday, we painted part of the pastor's home. My shoulders are very sunburned from that.

Next week, we'll be spending most of Monday through Friday doing odd jobs for a radio ministry in Versailles - that should be good.

Here in a bit, we're off to see "Diary of the Dead" (original version, i.e., in English)...probably have to call it a night after that, because we're getting somewhat of an early start tomorrow. (Yann and Rita are leaving for South France soon and they want to spend a lot of time with us over the next few days.)

I miss home, and Abilene and school...but the summer is going well, and I feel like I've made spiritual and social progress since I've been here.

I keep forgetting to bring my camera places, but I'll take and post more pictures before I leave Paris.
