The day after Easter celebration that brought the whole town to the Chateau

Monday, April 21--The day after Easter is a holiday in France. They celebrate Monday Easter. 


The Chateau Association reaches out to their town with a community Easter Egg Hunt. This year they invited Pastor Daron to share about Native Americans after the hunt.

We praise God for the multinational team of helpers who made the day possible. French, German, US citizens, and  a Native American worked together to make a good memory for the children of St. Albain.

Dominique Henchoz helped Pastor Daron think through of a way to speak to the interest and hearts of the people at the Chateau. We praise God for the Holy Spirit who helped us share to create more interest in the things of God.  Together, we offered a unique perspective on following Christ, the Creator.

After a short talk, Pastor Daron invited interested guests to ask more questions about Navajo culture and to take a photo with him.  Many people stayed, took pictures, and ask curious questions. 


Later in the afternoon, our team paused to thank God for a great outreach.  Without your prayers, nothing could have been done. Rainclouds came near but only a few drops fell. Children could have been a distraction but most were quiet and occupied.  Many people could have left after the egg hunt but most remained to hear about Navajo culture.  Your prayers were effective. Thank you for praying. Together, we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength.
