Chichis frégis


Sunday was a long day. First there was a French service at L'église Friedland. Jean Raymond gave a great sermon in French and Kelly translated. Then we drove up to Nellie's. She wasn't hone, but she let us use her charming home in the hills outside Marseilles for lunch. Jean Raymond cooked for our group. The view of the Mediterranean was gorgeous.
On the way back to town, Kelsey wanted to try some chichis. So we bought this fried dough ( sort of like elephant ears or churros back home) for everyone to try. David Reilly thought it was pretty good!!
We spent the afternoon decorating the Friedland church for VBS and then stayed for the English church service of ICCM. Nancy Painter laid out a wonderful "collation" ( snack ) after the service. It was more like a meal for the whole team.
We actually got back early to Fort St. Nicolas and had devotions on the remparts. Please pray for our team this week. We have several people sick, quite a few tired teens and the temperature will hit 90*. The good news is that God has sent us about 50 kids for the VBS.
