Is it June already?!

Richard: Since our update in March, I have quit my job at Corcoran's and am know dedicating all my time to support-raising. I will be in Paris for one more month where I will be organising a few soirees and presentations relating to my future work with Global Hope. Otherwise, it is World Cup fever again (Ashley is soooo excited about it ;-))) It'll be interesting as at the time of the France v Switzerland game I will be in Geneva sandwiched right in between the two countries! Whoever wins the World Cup, one thing is for sure: the US will be back home next week!

Ashley: World Cup excitement...or exasperation!? Sadly, it was excitement until the States lost so miserably. Hmm, now if this were American football...well, I would be even less excited, but at least we'd represent a little better. haha. Fortunately, unlike some people, my life doesn't revolve around televised sports events. I have been keeping busy with Agape's end of the year activities and also with the heart-rending work of moving out of my apartment. Oh, Kellermann, I shall miss you so. I am now living alone in an increasingly empty apartment. Oh, wait, at least there's Clarence. This is also tourist season, which can surprisingly be pleasant when friends from home are among them and I've had the chance to see many friends stopping by in Paris. It is also the season for saying good-byes, as friends, teammates, and acquaintances leave temporarily or (sniff, sniff) sometimes for good. July 8 will be my turn to say good-bye to Paris for awhile and return to the States to raise support...so that I can come back to France in autumn! Please pray for God to make the most of my time here and for His provision this summer regarding support.
