Saying goodbye to Papi

Because of "la grève," Papi got off a day late for his trip up north to teach at the Bible institute. Miriam got a field trip to the train station out of it.

Visiting the French grandchildren

This is Dad. I've really had a wonderful time with Tim and Ruth and my precious grandchildren. That is the special bonus. I'm here for Marcelle, and have spent a good bit of time with her. There is no doubt that the Lord wanted me her at this time, and I'm grateful, but I'm looking forward to being back with Mom. And, getting on with our responsibilities there in the states so that we can get back here to the ministry. But I hate leaving Micaiah and Miriam. I felt we'd bonded last time, but I've really it this time. It has been merveilleux.

Papi's here!

... And this is the entourage that was at the airport to greet him.

Waiting

Here he comes!
