Rue St. Rome
Christmas is only one week away and the shoppers were out in full force today here in Toulouse (This photo is of rue St. Rome, a street with a lot of shops, similar to nicolete mall). It’s so bizare that a culture so distant from religion and God is still so feverish over the giving of gifts. So many of the surface level activities of the church are left here (like not working on sunday, almost EVERYTHING is closed sundays) while God is lost. Please pray for this season to become more real to those who are here.

Last Saturday Tiffany and I met up with a friend in her home town of Albi, France and we saw this beautiful church. This is a great shot to capture the size and detail that went into making the whole church. It is the Cathedrale Ste. Célice if anyone cares to look up more information on it. The trip was a lot of fun even if it was quite a bit colder than expected that day.

Full Coffee Cup 2

The blog wouldn’t be complete without a shot of coffee served in france. Mmmm hard stuff. It’s interested because I add the sugar when I get hot chocolate but not when I get coffee. Hmmmm. I think it’s interesting anyway.
