Praise God who blessed our Easter Conference, from 26th to 28th March, in a wonderful place between Paris and Nantes.
This place is run by the Assemblies of God.
The environment is very adapted for Christian’s groups.
24 people attended this biblical week-end, including 4 children.
Misn. Paul Le’s family from Geneva and 4 members of the Nett family from Cologne (Wynelle, Peter, Esther and Rebekka) blessed this conference by their presence, prayer and voluntary participation to the program.

The theme was: “The power of the Cross, the hope of Resurrection.”
The message of the cross, based on Mark 15, was preached by Misn. Jacob Han (Nantes).
He developed 3 main points: 1) The Cross is the power of God that gives the salvation to the souls; 2) The Cross is the power of God's love; 3) The Cross is the power of reconciliation with God.
Misn. Jacob struggled well to prepare this message, despite his actual difficult situation, because of his visa problem.
He repented his sins in front of the cross and renewed his vision.
The second message was preach by Pastor Abraham Koo.
He was a precious UBF member for many years.
Some years ago, he coworked with a Korean Church in Paris and studied Theology to become a Pastor.
Since 3 year, he serve a local church in his home with his family (Misn. Suzanne, Jeanne and Paul).
Praying for the program of this conference, God put deeply in my heart to invite him as a special preacher.
I received the conviction from the Holy Spirit to renew the contact with him.
He and I, we have a long spiritual history in common.
I remembered how he served Lyon UBF ministry with all his heart for many years.
He also was continuously in contact with Paris 2 coworkers and Misn. Esther Han (Nantes) and encouraged them.
I was so happy when he accepted our invitation.
He preached a powerful message based on 1Cor 15.50-58.
He explained us how to have concretely the faith and power of resurrection in our daily life to overcome sin.
Many coworkers enjoyed his presence.

Another great thank to God is the commitment of Nantes 2nd gen (Sarah Han, Joseph Han and Celeste Aussant) to serve this conference.
After their participation to Encounter Conference last year, they had a deep desire to serve the church with music.
One month before this conference, they began to prepare the Worship Night for the first day of the conference.
Sarah had examinations the week after the conference, and Celeste is also preparing the final exam of Middle School (9th grade), but they gave all their heart and prayer to choose the hymns and they meet several times for training.
During the Worship Night, they lead people to enter in the presence of God through worship.
May God grant them as beautiful servants of Christ and of the church.

I praise God who blessed our Conference. We pray now to prepare the French Speaking Countries Conference in Switzerland (27th-30th July).
