les Davey de France

In 2005 Alan, Pat, Gwilym & Catrin Davey moved from North East Wales to Bordeaux. Alan is a pastor and Pat was a nurse. Now we work with UFM worldwide. Read on! (If you'd like to know what took us to Bordeaux, then start with the archives from September 2004)

Got the order of service ready

For the French church we don't got no hymn books nor no Bibles, so we have to project everything we sing on the wall.

Also the order of service is a bit more complicated than for a typical British church service. There's more readings (which is good, because you can link different passages with the passage you're preaching on). We sing more songs. Generally it entails more preparation.

So it's always good when it's done and dusted and ready for conversion to PowerPoint !

(By the way, did I say that I'm preaching tomorrow morning ?)

On the other hand for the English language service in the evening we have American hymnbooks (The Hymnal) and Bibles, so we can do things more simply.

(Oh yes - and tomorrow evening.)
