Wednesday 30th July

I'm at Las Pas Opton, France, speaking English with a French accent, Peter Sellers style. Over a thousand lovely guests here (and 37 unlovely ones - only joking....). The weather is great, and it's amazing how many come along to the bible studies in the morning and the celebration in the evening - especially when we tell them not to come and go swimming instead! It's good to be sharing the speaking with Ruth Dearnley, and hanging out with the Dearnley family (Mark, Charlie and Esther) as well as Jill Rowe who is here too. It's also interesting to see how God manages to speak to people and deal with stuff in their lives when they are relaxed and having fun. Note to self and indeed to the entire human race: relax and have fun more often.
