Many of you know that after living with Pete & Miri for 3 months, God provided an apartment for us to move into via an old man called Claude! He had checked his Facebook account for the first time in about 6 months to find a message from that "nice young Englishman" at the exact same moment that he put down the phone from his brother-in-law, who had asked if Claude could help him to fill their mother-in-law's two-bedroom apartment in Annecy.[09-01-12] The Olympics are Coming!

So much has happened since our last update! It’s been a real boost to the team to have Ali and Vicky back from Montgenevre and meeting with the team regularly again.
We've Got the Keys to St. Peter's
It's been a long time coming but, after years of prayer and dreaming dreams we picked up the key to St. Peter's church on Friday. For now the church has been bought by the national Elim body pending redevelopment, but nevertheless it's an exciting stage to be at. The dreams of using the building to have an impact on the community of Loughborough - students and residents, young and old, rich and poor - just got a little closer, and a church that was built for the glory of God took another step towards fulfilling its reason to be.
From a practical point of view, the site is still being surveyed, so for now, we're asking that people don't go on site until we've had the chance to assess any risks properly. We'll be sending out regular building updates from here on in, including a document at the start of September charting the progress of the project since January and looking ahead to the next phase. Then at the joint gathering on the 13th September we'll be talking about what all this means and launch the next stage in the consultation process. Obviously this is going to be fairly significant for us as church over the next few weeks, months and years, so if there's any way you can make it to this gathering, then please do.
Hopefully see you there.
Matt
