The Eglise Baptiste de Pessac held its 18th annual Repas Agape on February 19, 2010. This event is a special outreach banquet for students. This year, as in 2006 when we visited, I (Tim) was able to preach. With the Winter Olympics in progress, we chose as our theme "Je cours vers le but... le prix céleste" ("I run towards the goal ... the heavenly prize") from Philippians 3:14.
One of the families in the church loaned us their Wii with the winter olympic games and each country (table) chose a representative to race down the mountain on skis for the gold. Not wanting it to get too competitive, each table represented a country that was real, but barely known. Though it was a smaller crowd than in the past, we had a good percentage of visitors, including one young lady for the same township as the church, and one young man from as far away as Vietnam.
