Welcome to the Violleau's

We're now finally settled in Rennes in Brittany, or more precisely in our new house in Betton (north of Rennes). We are gratefull to God who led everything during the summer so that our move went without any problem. Keep praying for the whole family as we all have to adjust to our new activities (full day school for Julie, first time at playgroup for Anna, work at the Agapé office for David, a bit of all that for Carolyn!). We wish you all a good start to the school year.

Times of sharing, prayer and workshops enabled us to go further in small groups. We began each day with a time of worship, joyfully giving glory to God in song. We spent one afternoon in an old-people's home where we sang Christmas carols and chatted with the residents. It was lovely to see how much they enjoyed our presence. Some residents cried; others , who usually never speak, sang with us. Thank you Lord for enabling us to share Your love with these people. We also made the most of the mountain air on an afternoon outing of ski, sledge or hiking. And we finished 2010 and started 2011 all together with
