Only a few days to go until the big competition kicks off, but in the meantime, you can come and visit the “Expo des JEUX” organized by the association Culture & Expressions Protestantes at Le Pré Saint-Gervais, 10 minutes from Porte des Lilas!
Here are a few words about this initiative that brings together the arts, sport and spirituality:
At last Friday’s vernissage, some thirty visitors admired Adelaïde Beauducel’s hyper-realistic portraits of sportsmen and women, painted with a simple pencil!
They were also able to discover a large part of the “Bible Corps & Sport” exhibition created by the Alliance Biblique Française.
Special guest for the opening, Loïc Samen, French Greco-Roman wrestling champion, explained his sporting career and gave a heartfelt account of the concrete impact of Christian faith in his life.
The exhibition is still open until mid-July, so come and visit with a friend! Each visitor will be offered a “More precious than gold” New Testament, and can play to win a drawing by Adelaïde (follow her on Instagram: @adelaide.beauducel)!
The exhibition aroused interest, and so the Paris-Télégraphe evangelical church decided to host it on its premises from mid-July!
Address: 36bis rue du Borrego, Paris 20e
