Richard Thompson reports on Quaker activities across the channel

by Richard Thompson 19th October 2012

France Yearly Meeting returned for its Assemblée Annuelle to La Gardiole in the Gard Department, only fifty kilometres from Congénies, the only purpose-built Quaker Meeting House in France. There were just over thirty of us to put our theme into action: ‘Faisons notre avenir ensemble!’ – ‘Let us make our future together!’ We took on three big ‘Do It Yourself’ projects.
