After spending an hour or so in Douai to “sightsee” (i.e. wander around), we drove to Lille and went to Andre’s for lunch and a quick presentation introducing us to his ministry and life and such. He took us to a metro station where his people regularly pass out tracts and had us perform there. We had no sound, so our set was very limited. We did a few songs accompanied by Jake’s acoustic guitar, but the few dramas we did were completely silent. After every two or three songs or skits, Andre would step up and preach to the crowd while his friends passed out literature. A few people stopped to watch a whole set, and many took literature.
After we left the metro, we went to do a bit of ministry in another town that I really can’t discuss here. Let’s just say that God is moving in a ministry in which believers engage the unsaved through personal interaction and only share the gospel when they are asked about their lives or faith. If the French were to find out what this ministry is really about, they would stop going to this location or engaging in conversation with the people who serve there. However, through the method they use, seeds are being planted, and a few have even come to Christ! We performed in this location to draw attention to the missionaries’ ministry location, but we performed only secular songs using a keyboard, guitar, violin, and a couple of mics. It was a lot of fun to work with these enthusiastic people who are so zealous for the souls of their people! After a couple of hours there we went home to Douai, finished for the day.
