Market Day in Belzat - and Church in Royat

Saturdays in Europe aren't complete without a visit to the local market. And naturally that means an investigation of the town as well. This particular day was spent in Belzat, France near Clermont-Ferrand. Very pretty.


















And Sundays are more complete if they're spent worshiping with fellow believers! Naturally it's helpful for us to find a service in English - like this one in Royat but we didn't expect to find people in the congregation who spoke 'Southern'!

Unfortunately, Marijke lost battery power on her camera at that hour; she would have loved to have gotten a picture of me with the Greer folk we met. They had just moved to France (with Michelin, of course) and seemed to be settling in nicely with the local church and community. I wonder how they translate 'y'all' into french?
