Outreach
We have 8 Harding University students with us and they will be staying until Wednesday evening. Their professor, Dr. Robert McCready, has been taking them about Europe the last few weeks and they’ll be in France till the end of the month.
This morning, two minutes after their arrival, they went to Daughter’s English class and took the place by storm! Daughter’s classmates got to do one-on-one interviews with the Americans and did they ever make a lot of noise. Daughter’s teacher was very happy to welcome the group. So much good communication taking place!
Afterwards, the group had a great lunch (prepared by Wife) and hit the streets stuffing mailboxes (legal here) about the websites we’ve set up which host short articles about “looking for God”.
Tomorrow, a group of us will be at the nearby Protestant Reformed church for their morning prayers, then 5 or 6 of the old ladies from the neighborhood will come over for tea with the group of young people. Son 2 and Daughter have invited the group to lead the High School sack-lunch Bible study, before we head to the nearby rest home for an afternoon of singing and contact.
Come join us.

Man, hanging out with you, wife, Son 2, Daughter, Daughter’s English Class, stuffing mailboxes, and the old ladies of the “PR Church” and all of it taking place in Switzerland - where do I sign up?
I loved your “old ladies” comment. This is what my Dad used to call the group of ladies he used to pick up for church in our church van and they loved it.
Let me know if you have any openings.

I like that you involve those two “old ladies” from the neighborhood!
