Fada

We have just been to Fada for the weekend. It was for SIMs Spiritual Life Conference.  We left Ouaga on Thursday and were there until Sunday.  It was great to get away from the dust and smog of Ouaga for a few days and spend some time with our SIM family!  Ben preached on Thursday and Friday but had the rest of the weekend off.  The children were well looked after by a team of Canadians who were there to do a kids club. 

When we arrived on Thursday we were greeted by a lady who asked us if we recognised her.  She looked familiar but I could not place her.  It turned out that we knew her from Bordeaux, she attended the church in Blaye and we had met her on several occasions.  It was lovely to see her again and get to know her better! She had various messages for us from folk in Bordeaux, but as she was only in Burkina for three weeks and was staying in Mahadaga she did not know if she would see us or not.


The children did a presentation on Sunday morning which Luke narrated (don't you just hate proud parents) it was the sorry of when Jesus healed the paralytic and they all did a great job!
