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)

Changeover Sunday

Hardly any students at church in the morning. We were about 30. Before heading off for the evening Pat and I looked at each other and did mental arithmetic. I had just set out the benches in "small, intimate number" arrangement when a family of holidaymakers came in. We thought "Ah! It's changeover Sunday." So we were (just nationalities now):

British
Turkish
Dutch living in France
Dutch living in Sweden
Canadian
Iraqi
Algerian
French (including one chap from Pessac)

It's holidaytime again. The highlights were a French lad who hopes to become an evangelist. I hope he can find someone to encourage him. I'd have a go but he's very pentecostal and I don't have a charismatic bone in my body. I know because Stuart told me. So I'd drive him NUTS within a couple of hours. Oh yes, and a muslim girl who said "I'm muslim but I want to become a Christian", and asked lots and lots of questions.
