Une soirée Jazz

While reading my CMS monthly prayer newsletter, I noticed the following on Day 18 (France):
"Pray..for the GBU's Soirée Jazz on 20 November, to be followed by a week of evangelistic dialogue meetings.."

From my understanding (which may require confirmation - j'espère qu'il y a un/e GBUssien/ne qui puisse m'aider confirmer ces informations), this Soirée Jazz event involves French students & others (predominantly non-Christian) being contacted (i.e. through Bible-stands) and invited by GBU-affiliated believers to the event to hear jazz music and a spoken presentation of the gospel.

Those who attend the event, and subsequently indicate interest in other GBU activities can then come along to other evangelistic events organised by GBUssiens/GBU partners.

I got in touch with Mia* (pseudonym), my Korean francophone sister from June/July mission, to find out how the evening had gone (20/11 was this Friday just past).

Here's an excerpt of her reply:
"La soirée s'est très bien passée, c'était K.[Kade*] et les deux autres collègues qui ont organisé et il y avait bq d'invités (environs 100 ps?)."

Translation:
The evening went very well, it was [Kade*] and two other colleagues who organised it, and there were many guests [i.e. non-GBUssiens who had been invited] (around 100 people?)..

If this be true, then - à Dieu soit la gloire, et beni soit son nom!!

In God my Saviour does my heart rejoice!
