Wow! Whether you can believe it or not, I am already halfway through this mission project. This weekend we are taking a mid-project break to rejuvenate ourselves. We are leaving Montpellier today and driving across southern France to Nice where we will spend the day, and then we will be retiring to a French villa in the countryside! We will be staying at this villa until Monday afternoon, and then we will drive back to MOntpellier and prepare for the last 3 weeks of ministry.
About a week and a half ago, I met a young French student named Nicolas on campus here in MOntpellier. He was a very nice guy and we easily got into conversation. My friend and I were able to share the Gospel with him and explained to him that he only has 2 possible destinations after life here on this earth and we shared with him how he could choose eternal life with Christ. He was not yet ready to make this decision, but he agreed to continue to hang out with me and my friends. I would have to say that Nico quickly became my best French friend thus far. Sadly, this coming Sunday he is going to be moving back to his hometown about 150km from Montpellier to work for the summer and I may not see him again. We gave him a French copy of the New Testament and he said that he would read it to learn more. Please pray that the Lord would pursue Nico and send other beievers to impact his life. Pray that the Lord would reveal Himself to him in His Word and that Nico's heart would be changed!
Thank you all so much!
