So, I have been thinking a lot about what is happening in France, that happens when you live in Europe... things in Europe are more important. A state of emergency has been declared for all of France because of the rioting and fires and such. We have a team of young adults in Paris and in Toulouse. They are both in areas where these things are happening heavily. A co-worker received a photo yesterday taken by a man he knows in Toulouse. The photo was taken out of his front window. He wrote with the photo. "It is hard to go home when your streets are full of fire."
The nearest rioting is about 40 minutes from where I am living. It is subsiding now, but still going on. If you click HERE you can see a timeline of what has happened.
Could you take moment pray for the people you know in France and those who need to know Christ.
Our hearts go out to the people of FRANCE!! Glad you are where you are...
ReplyDeleteOh my word, that picture is extemely frightening. Not to mention thought and prayer provoking as well. I will definitly be praying for those that are close to or in the thick of the action. Thank you for bringing this to our attention Melissa.
ReplyDeleteMy prayers are with you, your teams in France, and those in France who are searching for meaning...
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa. Went to GS to hear Tabitha sing last Sat. She done real good. Their missions sheet had your picture and an up date. I can still remember my first Christmas away from home. It was not a pretty sight but things got better. We so loved Europe at Christmas time, still miss it. You're in our prayers daily and we know God will bless in wonderful ways. Sounds like you are well into ministry. Busy hands and all that. Tabitha is well and just loves her job at GS. Can't remember when she has been so happy. Love your pictures. Katy and I wish you a wonderful Christmas and joyful New Year. On New Years Eve all Germany lights fire crackers and bottle rockets so be ready to watch. They really go bonkers. Enjoy.
