I love France!
Sunday - of course packed!
There was the baptism of Rose, who managed to avoid giving birth in the process. (!)
Then afterwards we had a church picnic in the beautiful heat next to a river. It was to say goodbye to Simona, one of my best friends here. (She was a student and is now going back to Rumania. Sob.) We had a lovely day! When all the ‘grown ups’ had gone off for a stroll a big water fight ensued and we were all suitable soaked!
After all that running about we were in need of a refreshing drink so we stopped in the city centre for a beer. Lovely! Sat outside in a street cafe, watching the sunset drinking a cold beer! 
I had cooked for a family of 6 on Saturday night and managed to seriously over provide! So I was able to invite another ‘family’ of 5 singles to join with me for a late supper. A very long but very fun day!
It’s the school holidays here so lots of youth around. Did a half day baptism preparation with 2 girls today. It was really encouraging to hear them vocalise their growing faith. Tomorrow I’m spending the day with a young lad who wants to speak English. We’ll see how it goes!
