This past week was extremely busy for us. Last Monday, we had an Easter picnic at the camp for the area churches. It was an encouragement to see and meet other believers from the different churches in the southwest of France. Monday evening was also the opening for the Easter camp. It was fun and tiring all at once to be running around all week with the teenagers. I also got a chance to speak in one of the Bible lesson times,which was a blessing. On several occasions last week, the kids at camp made statements saying that they were the only Christians in their schools, or the only other Christians that they knew were the ones in their churches or at the camps. It is a difficult time for these kids, and even more so because they truly do not have many christian friends around them. Camp ended on Thursday afternoon with everyone heading back home.

Even with the end of camp Thursday, it was a busy day again. I got up early to head back into town to spend the morning at the Bible stand. It was a beautiful day and a lot of people were at the market. We distributed quite a bit of literature and were able to speak to some people. One man from Madagascar seemed to be more open than the others. He took several different pieces of literature and said that he might come by again. Please pray that he would come back so that we can speak more with him about his need for Jesus Christ.

On Saturday, I was out at the camp again helping to clean up from the Easter camp and work on a trailer that is used for the ministry here. Tim (the missionary that we are working with) and I were able to strip it down to the frame. The plan is to use galvanized metal instead of wood when putting it back together so that it will not rot away. Saturday evening we also had an evangelistic conference at church. We had one visitor. The visitor had already come for several of the other conferences. Please pray that we continue to see others come to the conferences. For this conference, we put up posters around town and handed out invitations. The conference also was in the local paper. We will be having conferences in May and June. Though at times it does not seem like we are seeing much fruit from the work, we do see small results. Please pray that all the small results would add up to a soul saved.
