Just spent the last couple days re-disovering Paris, going to a few of my favorite places! I also got to go in service with one of the English congregations, as well as go to their meeting. One interesting thing is that because of having so many people from all over the world in one congregation, they are going to start using the simplified version of the watchtower for there weekly meeting. I thought thought that this was kinda cool and also couldn't help but think that it would be neat to use the simplified French one back home in Portland;)
Another great thing about this congregation is they have 36 pioneers!! Over 1/3 of their congregation!!
Also while at the meeting it just so happened that a Haitian Creole meeting was going on at the same time upstairs! I was thrilled to hear this and ran upstairs to say hello and ask about their meetings and service for when I come back in October. Well after having small conversation with two of the brothers outside the hall in creole, they demanded to know why I was going to the english meeting downstairs and not to theirs;) I quickly explained about having friends downstairs but promised to visit them in October, which just so happens to be when they are getting a special visit from the CO and DO!
In any case, below are a few pics from around Paris. I leave for Africa tonight!!!!
