We have visited the first three churches on our official programme - from top to bottom: Poissy, Chinon and Gap. I love sharing about Benin and our work there, and testifying to what God has done for us. Yes, the travelling makes it tiring, and the boys, while coping well, have at times seemed a bit perturbed at all the changes, but it is worth it!
And I had a lovely surprise at the church in Chinon - a couple who now live in France who I'd known in Yeovil at the age of 17 and not seen since!
We are also enjoying the fact that we are able to see friends on our travels, and spend lots of time talking. Not something we get to do much in Benin (except in Monkolé, which is harder going than French!).
A few more photos from our travels. Chinon:

Some snow we managed to find in the Auvergne:

The journey back from Gap was a bit less wonderful, as it was raining and I was very sick. But at least I got that out of the way between Sunday's afternoon meeting and this morning's debrief with our SIM France Director, Jean!
