Two weeks ago, I started a French Intensive Seminar here at
YWAM Lausanne. The
seminar is 4 weeks, 5 days a week, and 8+ hours a day. That's why it's
called "intensive"! I'm excited to be learning French. It gets old quick
when you go to the grocery store and don't know what the cashier is
saying to you. Or when you feel lead to talk to someone about the Lord in
the Lausanne city square and come to find out that you cannot
communicate with them because you don't know their language - French.
Roughly 170 million
people in the world speak French either as a first or second language.
That's a lot of people! 30 contries in the world have French as
their official language with several other countries speaking French as
a secondary language.
Knowing French will
open up many more doors for ministry, not only here in Switzerland, but
around the world!
~ PRAYER REQUEST ~
Would you take a
few minutes right now to pray for me that I would understand as much
as possible during the French course and that I would be able to
retain what I've learned. Also pray that I do not become discouraged
and impatient if I understand it right away. I am starting from
scratch with French so I need to be patient with myself.
Thank you for
faithfully praying for me. It's much appreciated and very encouraging.
God Bless,
Tyler
