*More excerpts (in italics) from my journal of my trip to France in 2007. I have added comments (non-italics) to the original journal entries.
"Worship was sweet! Sweet and passionate and reverent. All choruses I knew, ending with "How great is our God"!"
They were singing in French and it made me think of all the nations worshipping in their own tongues around the world. It was an awesome experience and one I will never forget and hopefully will experience again soon!
"I was overwhelmed and cried a lot! Pastor Pierre preached in French and his American wife, Nancy translated in English." It was a wonderful teaching on Abigail and Nabol. "I spent the rest of the day with Nancy and Pierre. We stopped and bought kabobs (like a gyro but in a tortilla) and then went to their apartment. We had a great time of fellowship and then a great time of prayer. I am learning that evangelism in France is a long and slow process. we must pray for our brother and sisters laboring in France (that they don't loose heart)....I asked Nancy about going to Strasbourg from Nice and she told me of a sleeping train running from Nice to Strasbourg...sounds like a plan to me! God is good! I only had a little time to get my things together at the hostel and get back to the station...I had asked the hostel if I could stay and extra night. they said, "Ok", but I would need to pack and put my luggage in a storage room and then check back in tonight...so my bags were already packed. I went back, grabbed my bags and told them I would not be staying the night and they refunded my money! "
