I am sitting in the Fredericton, NB airport, on my way to Mélun, which is located south of Paris.
Many things go through my mind! With my family, I lived in France for almost a year. In fact we are approaching the anniversary of our trip there to begin language study. The Tour de France is under way at the present time. That means the nation is filled with 'velo-mania'! I will not be close to any of the racing, otherwise the fever could hit me as well!! Additionally, Bastille Day, the great national day of La France is this week (juillet 14)! No better place to be than Paris on this day....
Yet my trip is to impart the precious Word of God into the lives of men and women who are endeavoring to fulfill the call of God in their lives by studying in a Bible College!! Around the world, I have been blessed to multiply my ministry in the Bible College setting. Fewer things in life have such a potent return on investment!!
So I pray!!!
I pray for a safe trip. I pray for wisdom. I pray that my French is not as rusty as it feels like! Join me in prayer, that the next 7 days will be powerfully directed by the power of the Spirit!!

Have a wonderful trip to France. You will be a blessing!
Hey Brother,
I just heard that you were going earlier this week. So happy for you. There is a great bunch of young people there and IBF is a well-oiled machine. Had I gone this year, I would've arrived this morning (*sigh*... next year, Lord willing). So enjoy a café/croissant and a crême brûlé to my health. I'll be praying for you this week!!
