Cook Weekly - 1 sept 2008

Dear friends and family:

Norbert and Luci Clément, church planters in Poiters, France and president of the CMA in France, graciously hosted us in their house for most of last week.  Pray for grace and wisdom in their ministry.  The church has about 50 regular attenders! This is a pretty large church for France. They are going to start remodeling the interior of their church building in order to enlarge the sanctuary area in September.  As president of the national church, he is participating this week in the funeral of a French missionary (sent out by France).  Pray that God comforts that missionary's family (wife and 5  children).

We are now settled into our apartment here at Cindy's (my) language school. We were originally to have one-room at the school, sharing a bathroom and kitchen with others; we have all this in one place now. God is good. I'm 10 minutes walking distance from Les Cédres.   Matt on the other hand is one hour with walking and train into Paris from his school. He will leave around 8 am each morning and arrive home about 6PM. This starts Monday for him. I start on Tues.  Pray for diligence in our studies and quick learning to make good improvements in our language skills.

Pray also for Andy as he's pretty homesick. 

Cindy Cook,
CMA missionary to Côte d'Ivoire
