Young adults


Last year several pastors heard about our retreat of 8 and encouraged us to organize one for young adults, so not knowing how to go about it we reserved a center in the south for France and sent out the invitations. We were greatly encouraged by the response and Praise the Lord for the way the retreat was blessed of the Lord. The Thème was "Who Me called "? There were Five messages given on five aspects of the Lord's calling upon our lives. Hugo, Stephen, Samuel, Didier and myself gave the messages and the repsonse was very positive. Isabelle was in charge of the food and did a wonderful job cooking for a crowd of 48 young adults. The plan is to renew the idea for next year so Pray that the Lord will direct in the theme and thoses who will come.

Youth retreat 2




The youth retreat was a special blessing because of the fact that so many young people were encouraged to live their christian life. For years we have been involved in summer camps and every year the young people have the same testimony! "I left last year with a great desire to continue on for the Lord, but after a few months I got in with the wrong crowd and spirituelly disconnected". These retreats are a booster shot in the arm for these young people.

Teen Retreat


Last year 07 we had a one day retreat for young people and 8 showed up for a day of fun and fellowship and preaching. This year we planned a little harder and 22 showed up. What an exciting time we had in the word and prayer with some fun activities!! Baseball-basketball. I had never heard of anything like it before my French coach had us play it just before Christmas brake!!! Young people came from Limoges, Poissy, Alsace, Mantes, Maison-Lafitte, and Orleans.

Family United


It was a great Joy to have our family united over the Year end Holidays. Stephen and Samuel flew in on the 12 and were supposed to fly out on the12th but because of snow and ice in Paris they didn't get off until the 13 of January. They spent the night in the airport but they were able to meet up with some other MK's that were heading back to school as well. While they were here we were able to take some pictures and here are a few.
