In the small hilltop village of Grane (pronounced Grahn)- in the Drome region, a family has begun to rebuild a centuries old house that was a pile of rubble. Bruno, Regine and their boys will live in the house and use it as the church's meeting space. The Peninsula Vineyard took a team of 10 men to help build last April. Another trip is planned for this upcoming spring. The boys in these pictures absolutely stole my heart. It's through these boys that I found out that in this region they greet and say goodbye with 3 kisses on the cheek (not 2 like in the northern part of the country). When we said goodbye to them, I pulled away after 2, but I was informed by Johann that it was three and he gave me another.

Snipets of France
Although we are back, there is much to process for both Anthony and me. The places, people, kisses, sounds, stories, will soon be told - but until then, I wanted to share with you my favorite things captured on camera...
Julie (very helpful in correcting my French) She gave the sweetest little kisses!

Les Enfants

Church in Alsace where Rachel helped sing worship in French (such an awesome experience!)

Petit Dejuner (breakfast) at Phillipe & Martine's home in Alsace. We worshiped and prayed over their 4 children.

Small village in the Drome region - place of one of the church plants.
