NEW blog post 👉 Easter 2025 & last 4 months (link in profile 👆)

JOHN HUGH: “The end of 2024 and January 2025 was a pivot point for us.  A lot has gone exceptionally well for us here, both in church ministry, school for our special needs son, and fantastic school for our other two sons.

Yet it has been a haul since the Covid year (2020-2021)...Linda took a 3 month sabbatical from church January to March 2025 - yet the church has grown the most during this time.

A latent issue of mine - seeking approval and self-worth in both ministry acclaim - crept back into our lives....”

Thanksgiving 2024: Surprised weekly in France! We didn’t expect the youngest brother’s first flute performance to be at such a pretty church.

John Hugh: We are starting up our blog again for the holidays and the end of the year. 🌟 I love to share and stay connected, especially at this time of year. Here is a short gratitude list of what am I thankful for now as we kick off the holidays.

Linda: It’s taken me nearly 8 months to reboot our blog.   John Hugh has been patiently waiting for me to find time – God bless him. It’s been over 3 years since we arrived in France, and I can’t believe it.    Perhaps the most dutiful thing to do on Thanksgiving is write a gratitude list.

Happy Easter 2024 from Paris! 🌟 New Blog Post (👆 profile link): All Things New - Easter 2024

JOHN HUGH: “In Christ, all affliction only leads to resurrection. Our move to France afflicted us in different ways and changed so many different rhythms, challenges, and changes.

Thus, the "afflictions" of less sports (yes, a big deal for me), not having regular baseball (although we`ve found a team!), not having backyards (although a national forest has become our new backyard).

But it`s been good, and all used for good in us too…”

LINDA : “I was naive, really naive, to think we could transplant our family rhythm from the US onto France.
👉How we travel changed (by foot and metro – only sneakers to save my feet).

👉The length of our lunches with friends changed (from 1 hour in the US to 5 hours in France).

👉How much help my kids need with homework changed (nothing to 2-3 hours every night).”
