Dear Forsling supporters,

First off, thank you all. Thank you for supporting Brad, Britt, and the boys in their ministry in Paris and at EIC Rive Gauche. It’s been an honor to serve as their pastor and help them get acclimated to life here. They’ve have folded in in a fantastic way. Moving to Paris with a family of 5 is no easy feat. We know, having 3 boys as well and arriving 5 years ago. There is language, logistics, kid’s school, and French culture, surrounded by many unbelievers, who may not even believe God exists. Yet Brad and Britt have handled it with aplomb. They have been their winsome, curious selves to engage their neighbors, friends from school, and others with the love of Christ. Even more they have contributed greatly to the life of this new church. They have hosted church events regularly in the apartment God provided for them. Britt is ministering to ladies, helping with children, while Brad has grown in leadership. He’s in an elder pipeline group our church started, redone our church worship media, helping to lead the Christ Covenant team here in May (along with the Night of Worship we have planned) and continues to help me brainstorm about property and church plans for the future. More so, I count him as a trusted friend. We have enjoyed their family and only want to see them flourish in Paris.

Please know they are making a significant contribution in the life of this church. I would ask you all to continue your support, and even more - let others know what they are doing and help them while here. We are for them, and thankful they are staying. So now - would love to see you here and visit as well! All of you are always welcome at EIC Rive Gauche. Thank you again and hope to see you soon!

In Christ,

John Hugh Tate
