Another Week Begins

After a wonderful weekend we are back at the work again. Well...when I say weekend I actually mean we worked a full day on Saturday wallpapering, sanding, cutting, and evven tiling. Then we enjoyed an evening of relaxing around the house with Richard and Lorette( our hosts). On Sunday we were blessed with the opportunity to attend a local church which happens to be the church of our hosts and many staff/faculty at Collage Daniel where we are serving. Although a very charismatic with constant dancing, music, and very much spirit led we all enjoyed it greatly. With Sunday being a beautiful day here we all headed out to a nearby village for a flea market. Nobody really seemed to find anything too interesting but wandering through the tiny streets of a Small French village is unforgettable.
Which once again brings us to today...Monday. We continued to wallpaper and sand the main classroom we have been working on. In fact, had we not run out of wallpaper, we would have finished with wallpapering today. Nonetheless, with a lack of wallpaper many of us moved on to paint the classroom where the walls were otherwise done. Michael, Caroline, and Isaya began tiling a small bathroom and did a great job on the first of 4 walls in there. Pictures of both the classsroom and the tiling are below. Veronica, Nicole, and Phil (EuroTeam Leader) tackled another task we have undertaken here which is fixing up a rotten floor. They began by doing some good ol' fashion demolishion today. It sounded like alot of fun.
Tomorrow looks to be much of the same for us. However, we are all looking forward to a visit from Pastor Brett on Wednesday and Thursday. It is wierd how way over in Guebweller, France we have found connections and see people we know.
Most importantly of all of this. We are doing great. Thank you again for all your prayers and support. We miss Winnipeg but we must be honest - a few of us are thinking of moving to France already - half way done and we've already grown fond of the place. It is hard for your heart not to go out to these people who are stepping out in a dark world to make a difference. just that we can be a part in this no matter how small is amazing.
