Hello from France!

Salut! We’re Margo and Paolo!

We’re traveling around the world to learn about children of God. Join us as we visit France!

There are almost 40,000 members of the Church in France! The temple in Paris, France, was finished in May 2017.

This is a Book of Mormon in French.

The Louvre, in Paris, is the biggest art museum in the world! It has more than 380,000 pieces of art.

In southern France, people prepare for Christmas by making a “crèche,” or nativity scene. The scene is full of people waiting for Jesus Christ to be born. On Christmas Eve, they put the statue of baby Jesus in the crèche!

French children love to play a game called “escargot.” You jump in a spiral shape to get to the end!

France is famous for its breads and cheeses. Many people buy fresh baguettes from boulangeries (bakeries) every day.

Meet some of our friends from France!

I love everything about Primary—the songs, the teachers, the activities, and the things I learn about Jesus Christ. I especially like it when we wish children happy birthday. I look forward to Primary every week.

My favorite Book of Mormon story is about Nephi forgiving and loving his brothers. Thanks to Nephi’s example, this part of the scriptures really helps me to ask my brothers for forgiveness more easily when we argue and also to forgive.
