Oct 12 Near Charlie DeGaulle's Airport





Plane tomorrow - no internet connection since Rouen.
Highlights of visit in Le Vesinet, western suburb of Paris.: .
Beautiful lunch with FOUR French cousins -day of our arrival.

Unbelievable traffic jam, due to FLOODING in this area of France.
Pictures of Le Vesinet we’ll post later, because of the special architecture .
France’s love for the aesthetics is, I believe,so intrinsic to their culture. We’ve learned so much; enjoyed discussions during long family dinners; my head is spinning with all this language; happy to come home.






And finally a touch of the spiritual, taken from a little parish church near the house
(Translation of prayer)

To You Who Enter into This Place
You have entered this house
The house of “God-Love”
Whoever you are, He welcomes you
with your joys and your pains
with your hopes and your deceptions
Be welcome
If you are believing pray to God
If you are searching, are in doubt or troubled, ask for light.
If you suffer, if you have pain, ask for strength.
If you are joyful, spread the grace.
May your visit in this church warm your heart.
Whoever you are, know that you are loved by Jesus Christ the Resurrected.
In Him, evil does not have the last word.
May peace be with you.
