Je kiffe Paris!

September 7, 2008

Paris is just soooooooooo wonderful.  Thank you God for letting me work in this fantastic city!

Last night a friend from Orleans came to visit.  We met up with some guys from another church in the city and ate together in a typically teeny weeny Paris appartment.  Then we went out to the park to watch arty short films that were being screened and hear poetry being recited!  Ha ha!!  I’m cultured me!  Well, when my knees started aching, my bum got damp and I’d had enough rage against the establishment we made our way to the eiffel tower. lol!

WOW!  France has the presidency of the EU for 6 months and the tower is all lit up in blue.  It is breath taking!  Then on the hour it twinkles with little white lights.  Really really beautiful!

This morning was church and a new student called Matthew arrived.  There were 20 adults and about 6 children!  We’ll be neededing a new meeting room very soon at this rate.

This afternoon I saw my friend off and then had a wander round the area near the Hotel de Ville.  It was Sunday and everyone is out walking and relaxing.  There are street performers everywhere.  In the metro there was even a 10 piece string orchestra!  I went there to see a rollerblade exhibition and watch a demonstration.  All very good fun!

Tomorrow I go to the national pastors’ conference for the federation.  It’s going to last 3 days.  Last year was incredibly boring, I’m hoping this time it’ll be better!

BTW:  Fifi had her brake operation on Friday and all went well.  I now have to book her in for another MOT examination next week and hope that she passes!
