Nous sommes le samedi douze mars

A dry sunny morning.
We had a good night listening to jazz last night at Verfeil, the two players, one girl singer were really good.
We had about nine young men with us but the mood amongst them was sombre. Five came back to sleep in the gite, two are now in " HUDA " about an hour and a half away. A HUDA is not a CADA but a building housing the homeless. Now you wonder what a CADA is. That is a centre for welcoming refugees. We here at Rehoboth have been an unofficial CADA, but in truth the costs have been too high. The ten that have got into a CADA even though it is 900 kilometres away have done well. They will get professionals helping with their continuing applications, which is really important.
Within two and a half weeks our happy band will be dispersed but they leave with medical problems alleviated, heads held high and a belief that the world is not all bad.
 There are people who care and they have been shown that in St. Antonin Noble Val
