Guests
We had a lovely time on Friday evening with Naomi and her parents. Naomi will be working with the church this year. Her dad is a minister in North Yorkshire, he is also involved with Evangelical press in the UK. It was good to meet him and his wife. They are in Guingamp for the weekend and he will be preaching with us on Sunday.
Eglise Protestante Evangélique de Pontivy
Sunday saw the Durand family heading to Pontivy, about 80 km away, where Emmanuel was preaching in the local Evangelical church (France Mission). We had a great day.
The church is quite small, and that morning, the vast majority of people were English expats. I probably could have preached in English as a number of them had very little French. There was even a lady from Texas.
The Pastor was away, preaching in Guingamp.
We had lunch with his co-elder, Stephen, and his wife, Janine. They are an English expat couple and leave about 15 km from Pontivy in an old Farm house, lost in the Breton countryside. It was sunny and hot, very hot. It was 27°C in the shade at 13:30, and 32 when we left at 16:30. It was good to see some countryside and to visit another church in the area.
Something to be proud of
The new president of the French Football Federation, Noël Le Graët, is a local man. he has been mayor of Guingamp twice, and he is also the president of our local football club, En Avant de Guingamp (which club is going up this year).
The breton language festival
This should be interesting. From 10th to 12th June in Cavan, not far from us.
