Many ways of service – Addie F.

Today was our second and final day of painting the inside walls of Emmanuel International Church, our local church partner here in Paris.

One story, many contexts – Riley B.

Today was a demonstration that the Great Commission has many different contexts. We started this morning with our local church partner, Emmanuel International Church. With our painting clothes in hand, we traveled the metro across the city to help beautify the church in painting their sanctuary. Many hands truly do make light work, as we […]
