I am a sister Christian and I LOVE what you are doing both with the beautiful chateau and the students. I am so blessed watching your progress with the chateau and your ministry. Fantastic!!!
You guys are the best! I love not just your Chateau, but also your journey and how you have it on your hearts for the students. What a ministry. Thank you for blessing us with it all! ❤
I so enjoyed you sharing your students with us, What a lovely group of young people. It is a blessing to see them having fun and playing together as they learn. Great video. God bless you all.
So envious that this is only open to young people! I would love to camp out in a beautiful chateau, enjoying lovely meals and partaking in spiritual studies.
I thought the same thing as you. It would be wonderful partaking in Bible studies, enjoying delicious food, historical sight seeing, living in a chateau, and meeting other Christian’s. Maybe you can contact Rob and ask if the sessions are only open to students. It doesn’t hurt to ask. 💙🙏
Getting your luggage is huge! Looks like everyone is having a great time. You and Leslie are in your element! What a great experience for your students, to have La Griff as home base for their time in Europe. Congrats on getting the roof started!!!
You make Sundays very special. My late husband and I were youth group leaders at our local Episcopal church, and loved teens. I'm a decorator and enjoy the footage of your interior projects and approve what you are doing. Also enjoy how frankly you talk to us, share your daily work, past history, and goals. You and Leslie are salt of the earth.
Lovely to see so much progress and the Chateau full of life, love and laughter. You are doing such honourable work on both the Chateau and the lucky youth that get to come due to yours and your supporters generosity. Looking forward to seeing more and more joy being made by your great adventure.
Best way for a gal to celebrate her 19 th birthday. All the going on at the chateaux is so refreshing to see. You guys are are a special treat to watch.
You may have addressed this before, but I’d love to visit for a few weeks for an adult class. I think it would be so fun and enriching. Love what you are doing for these young adults. Leading them in the way of Christ ✝️
I’ve already got the birthday song stuck in my head 😂 As for the golf balls, maybe get Mr. Bingley a Jack Russell terrier for a companion. Jacks will chase balls forever and a day!
I throughly enjoy all of your videos all the way through, it’s especially exciting to see the young people experiencing this kind of travel and enrichment to their lives, and that’s something you guys are working so hard for. 👏🏻
❤ I loved watching this video , it's a great thing for your Chateau it bring the place to life and that's what these buildings are for . Great idea to show France off so much to look at . ❤ Happy Birthday Katie
Drag logs with lawn tractor or rent a truck. Shape like Lincoln logs for benches with a chainsaw! Yes, repelling would be the correct term for what roofers are going to do. Makes far more sense than using lifts as tall and steep as the roof is. Can't wait to see them working! What you are doing with the kids is wonderful, thank you.
So glad to see all of you! Loved seeing all the kids and 'being there' to celebrate Katie's 19th birthday! She will always remember this! The kids are the best part of the video. So much life and fun. Thanks for sharing!
It is so exciting to see the Château come to life with a new group of young people. Praying that the Lord moves mightily through the group and in all their lives. May they be enriched by this time there with you.
Hi Rob, Hi Leslie, a sister in the Lord here from Ontario, yup that's right a fellow Canadian! Watch your vlogs faithfully and love what you are doing with your lives in serving and honouring the Lord, not only in the USA, but allowing the Lord to use you in France in your beautiful Chateau that you both lovingly take care of and share with students from all over the world. What a blessing you both are, to those who visit and to those who like me, watch your vlogs. The students here seem to be having the time of their lives, learning all things 'French' in taking them, to not only visiting the historic sites and buildings, but allowing them to experience the food and culture, of the French way of life! What an incredible lesson you are teaching them and what memories they will be taking home with them, to last all of their lives! Thank you for your love for these students, in fact all of the students the Lord brings into your lives each year, and the marvelous Christian lessons they will learn in being with you both and also with their other 'new' student friends. Rob, just one other thing. Could you possibly do something about the microphone? If it is near the person recording, the sound is clear and heard. But if they are away from the phone, camera or whatever you use to record......the volume, well to be honest.... the volume disappears, and no other voices can be clearly heard!! It is truly dreadful when sitting on the receiving end of it. Remember when you vlog, only YOU has the microphone, no one else can be heard clearly. Therefore, humbly suggest you have another 'portable' mic to hand off to someone, or a clip-on mic similar to the one that you and Leslie wear, or you do a voice over when editing. But you must address this Rob, so we can enjoy audibly as well as visibly, your great vlogs! Excited awaiting your next one! Till then....God bless.🙏
This episode was delightful!! I was in a college travel/study group in Mexico City 55 years ago! The memories have been sweet reminders of a good adventure. You have helped make incredible memories for your student groups. What a blessing for this generation!! And the château adds to the charm!! 💕
How wonderful these young people get to tour many sights in the area also go to shop and eat out but use creativity to help celebrate a birthday. So happy to see them having such a great time and glad your trees are down and the roof will soon be repaired....busy busy life ❤
I love watching your videos. The kids are great. And the chateaux looks wonderful as always. You guys are doing such a beautiful thing with these kids.
Another great video.Always look forward to see what’s happening. Great thing your doing with all these wonderful students. The roses are absolutely amazing this year. So glad the roofers are finally starting. Need to protect all the great work your getting done at the Chateau.❤️
really missed you guys last week, but it was so lovely to see this episode - the chateau comes to life with all the students there 💕 there seems to be a wonderful atmosphere, i envy the folks quite a bit!! enjoy the weeks ahead! {also: Mr Bingley appears to have the time of his little life!! so sweet to see him joining in...}
So enjoyed this video. Love the energy and enthusiasm of the students. What a wonderful experience and opportunity you have provided for these fortunate students!
I for one, would like to see more in depth videos of your time with the students. What you are doing for them is awesome and is the reason you are renovating the chateau in the first place. All of what you are doing is wonderful and you both are very special people to have dedicated your lives to making such an impact on the young people you serve. God bless you both.
Rob we watch every minute, every second and totally enjoy you, the channel and the positivity that exudes from such a wonderful person with a wonderful family and outlook on life. Thank you for allowing us to be part of you life and ventures cheers Brad and Denise ✝️🙏
Love what you do with the kids, they are so lucky to have you and you both really take care of them so well all that work to make sure they are comfortable and well fed , great vlog
Rob: Hands down, the funniest thing in all your videos is following the Magical Rabbit. I was rooting for him to lead you to the hub cap 🤣! This is why I love you guys: although you are very sincere about your faith and mission, you still have a sense of humor and joie de vie. I can’t swing a donation to your mission at this time so I’m watching all the ads. God bless you. PS: as a former airline employee, sorry about the delayed luggage.
God bless you on this mission to the young people! I am so happy to se a true Christian work in France! May the Lord continue to bless your work for him! Maranatha
Texas here. Loved this video! Everyone looks like they are having a wonderful time. Y’all are doing a fabulous job and love the Chateau. Oh and I love your puppy dog. What breed is it, I’m shopping for a puppy, we recently lost our 16 year old puppy. God Bless you.
I wish I had people like you in my life, don’t get me wrong I have a beautiful mother and beautiful wonderful children. I adore all three of them but I have room for people like you in my life 😊
Hello, love your show! Just a suggestion, you need to invest in a hand sander. It will help you sand down your walls and woodwork faster. Also, I know other English French château owners that I have watched make trips to England to purchase paints and things because they are much cheaper. I am not sure how far you are from the ferry. I'm in Pennsylvania, so I am just an armchair quarterback here. Passing along information from the 5 or 6 RUclips château shows I watch. And after all of them, I can still only count to 10, speak the alphabet, and a few life saving words. 😊
Unfortunately I couldn’t hear what the students were saying. A “Mr. Microphone” might have come in handy. But all in all I think it was a fun time and experience for everyone….not sure the students are going to be heading to Hollywood any time soon…😀❤️ Watching from PA, USA.
I could not view hardly any of your vlog. It was blury/cloudy all through. Please use better quality video. I love watching but it actually hurt my eyes.
I was so invested in this magical bunny 🐰😂😂😂😂
Great presentation of life with students!
I am a sister Christian and I LOVE what you are doing both with the beautiful chateau and the students. I am so blessed watching your progress with the chateau and your ministry. Fantastic!!!
You guys are the best! I love not just your Chateau, but also your journey and how you have it on your hearts for the students. What a ministry. Thank you for blessing us with it all! ❤
I guessed the right dessert! 👏🏼👏🏼 And how exciting!!! The roof is beginning!! Woo-hoooooooo! 🎉
The youth is the purpose for the Chateau YES I Love seeing them enjoy learn and make new friends ❤❤
I so enjoyed you sharing your students with us, What a lovely group of young people. It is a blessing to see them having fun and playing together as they learn. Great video. God bless you all.
What an amazing experience for everyone, fabulous song, thanks for sharing xx
I loved this fun video! Oh the heavenly roses!! Happy Birthday to the Birthday Girl! Thanks!!
Always enjoy your videos no matter what the subject!

Glad to see prep for roof work and enjoyed seeing the students too. Place is looking B E A U tiful!
So wonderful to see the building full of life and being cared for professionally. Well done to you both. You are obviously doing what you love.
Im here for Bingly and Birthdays🥳😁👍🏻
I like when you show the château full of life with the students and the visits you make with them around France and Europe.
Getting your luggage is huge! Looks like everyone is having a great time. You and Leslie are in your element! What a great experience for your students, to have La Griff as home base for their time in Europe. Congrats on getting the roof started!!!

Luv it ALL!!!
The roses in the background are beautiful
You both do an awesome job coordinating everything! It looks like a very memorable experience for these lucky teens.
Such fun! I enjoy seeing the students so much. I'm amazed you were able to get a video up with all those students at the chateau!!
Had such as great fun watching this episode, especially the games and birthday party. Excellent loved it xxx

Love the young people ❤
God bless you on this mission to the young people! I am so happy to se a true Christian work in France! May the Lord continue to bless your work for him! Maranatha
And a fun time was had by all! Thanks for including us in the merryment.
A little western line dancing and a lot of fun! Happy birthday Katie from Calgary Alberta.
Those "flowers in the woods" are rhododendron. Definitely worth clearing out the little scrubby bushes growing around them.
Texas here. Loved this video! Everyone looks like they are having a wonderful time. Y’all are doing a fabulous job and love the Chateau. Oh and I love your puppy dog. What breed is it, I’m shopping for a puppy, we recently lost our 16 year old puppy.
God Bless you.

That was fun!!💜🌈💜
What fun you all had. Happy Birthday Katie!
Keep spraying the boxwood with an insecticide to keep the insects off.
😅 we don't roll like that haha

Have you received any compliments from the kids regarding their fancy rooms?

Good bunny-hubcap story
So glad you did not attempt the tree removal yourselves! A.
Rhodendron and azaleas ,old ones.
Do you use the pool?

The audio is terrible. I couldn't hear anything the kids were saying 😢
I could not view hardly any of your vlog. It was blury/cloudy all through. Please use better quality video. I love watching but it actually hurt my eyes.
