It was a very encouraging time of fellowship and ministry in Payerne (north of Lausanne). The meetings of the French-speaking Reformed Baptist Network were hosted by the Eglise Réformée Baptiste de la Broye. It was the first such gathering and there was much anticipation and excitement. Nine local churches were officially represented, two in Switzerland and the rest in France. There were more than 20 delegates and it was my responsibility to centre them on the great means of church planting in preaching and specifically preaching of the gospel.
