"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations..."
A while ago we mentioned that our French-language sermons posted on sermonaudio.com were also being used in an effort to launch a new internet based French language radio station in Senegal, West Africa. Today we received this update:
"... In just the last 30 days your sermons were carried into over 37 countries and to more than 185 households.
Your sermons are heard in countries like Mauritania, Libya, Senegal, Switzerland, Morocco, Cote D'Ivoire, Nigeria, Mali, and Brazil. This French language internet radio station has been heard on every continent (except Antarctica). ...
Over the next 12 months we intend to expand our advertising to increase the number of countries reached. We will increase our capacity to hold more Gospel messages and to service more simultaneous listeners.
Please pray for this ministry as we partner with you to carry the Gospel into areas where no missionary can go and to people starving for the Word of God. ..."

Back On the Home Front
First, thank you for praying for Sarah and Guillaume's wedding. There were around 200 in attendance, most of whom are not believers. The fact that most of these folks were in a Bible-believing church for the first time, coupled with the fact that weddings are rare, has given rise to questions that have opened more doors for the Gospel.
Second, every year apartment leases in Québec run out on June 30th which makes July 1st (Canada Day) a big moving day. The church is surrounded by apartments, and thus by all the activity that goes with moving day every year. We are organizing a free hot dog lunch for our new neighbors on that day coupled with an open house introduction to the church. Free literature will also be offered.

Summer Intern
It is hard to believe that Brandon's time with us is already beyond the halfway mark. In addition to cataloging Mike's library and helping with a few manual tasks, Brandon has preached twice already for prayer meeting. We are amazed at how well his ability in French has progressed!

Update on Catherine
Catherine has had no seizures in over three months! She was able to pick up online schooling and has already finished one class from BJU. In May, she began a part-time job at a boutique in the tourist section of the city. We are so thankful for this progress! Her heart's desire is to be able to return for studies in the States. We have important decisions to make concerning this fall.
