Week #3!

17.9.13

 
 Here we are, 3 weeks in France!  This last week was the hardest for be yet, which makes sense.  The "honeymoon" phase has worn off and now we are just settling into life.  I have been able to get a lot of school done and we are slowly getting more and more comfortable with French.  

Good news!  The church that we are going to has a group de jeune (youth group) that meets on Saturdays, so I'm gonna try it out this week. We'll see how that goes!  I'm praying that I will be able to meet some other kids and work on my French at the same time.  

Fall has definitely arrived.  It has been consistently rainy and chilly.  Fall/winter here is a lot like Seattle, cold and wet.  I have been loving my sweaters, scarves and boots!  I was talking to my Dad earlier about how it's weird that we're so cold. But, as we were in GA for the last couple years I think our blood really thinned out!!  It'll be fun to see how our bodies react when we get to Burkina!!  

And if anyone is thinking about coming to France, I am totally for it!  I will even be your personal tour guide.  Just throwing that out there....

♥Prayer Requests♥
  • Language learning
  • That group de jeune will go well
  • Peace
  • Nice Weather 
  • Comfort about missing friends and family  
Love you guys,
Jana
