The Baptist church in Pessac
On Wednesday I did something I had been meaning to do for ages - I contacted Bob Bixby of the Baptist church in Pessac. Everyone else in our UFM / MPEF / FAC team had met him, and it's the Daveys who live in Pessac ! So I thought this situation ought to be remedied.
I knew of him through Joy's blog, http://karagraphy.com/ , which pointed me to the Bixby Family Blog ( http://rbixbyfam.blogspot.com/ ), and to the sites of Bob and Tim Bixby who pastor churches in the USA ( http://www.wordcentered.org/welcome.html , http://weblog.wordcentered.org/ , http://www.clevelandparkbible.org/ ) . The lads fall in the reformed baptist end of the Christian spectrum (Bob's church is fond of the 1689 confession).
He knew of me because apparently if you google "church Pessac" you get the Daveys. Hmmm.
Anyway, yesterday we spent a couple of hours together. He showed me some of the materials he uses in French. I always find that invaluable. Their home is above the church rooms in a very fine rented house near the university campus in an area of Pessac known as Compostelle.
It was a good time. Pray for the churches of Bordeaux.
