Happy Independence Day! We went to church in the morning. Half of our group visited L'Église baptiste and had a service all in French. The other half attended L'église Réformé de Friedland, which is where we are holding the VBS.
In the afternoon we visited Nelly, one of the staff, at her lovely home above the city. Then we drove back to the church to decorated - balloons, posters, crepe paper, Bible verses on the walls and lots of party atmosphere.
It is hot - very hot and the church does not have much ventilation. It is in the city, so if we open
the windows and doors - then we hear loud traffic. If we close them, it gets hotter. A shower each day is a must. 2 showers is better.
52 kids are registered - 20% more than last year. Our jet lag is wearing off and we are excited to be here.
