At that time my church was in a place that was so out of the way that it had won the prize. Even the train doesn’t get as far as this village…

In the evening the organisers of the meeting give me 3 mins. to speak to the big crowd. 3 mins. is very little, but in front of 13,000 people it’s a lot…What shall I say to them in so little time

Did you know that God is the same whether we’re at church or not!?

The little guy is no longer there (saved), but what do I see ? He is now in the rows at the front and … Oh no! catastrophe, he is lighting up a ciggy (a ciggy in a church !!! My Christian side is thrown by that…!) It looks as if a big discussion ensues with Luke (my pastor friend)...

I go for a walk in order to pray but I put pressure on myself and talk to myself: ‘Man, Alain, it would be better if I got on with my work, I’ve got so much to do.’

During one of my tours in France, I meet an evangelist and his wife. When in the course of the conversation I happen to tell them my name, they stop talking. Their eyes, fixed on me, contain a strong emotion which I cannot explain.

That same day I am invited to a Brazilian VIP soirée, a sort of Oscars ceremony in Babylon, … I mean in Zurich.

At all hours, beside these magnificent beaches, you can come across us at the table of a café, in the middle of drawing and having a lively discussion.

For my daughter’s birthday, I am drawing a picture in her bedroom! Each hour we will post a photo showing the state of the work.

No roots, no fruit. What is vital in a tree is what is not seen… In our case, humans (as far as giraffes are concerned, I am not too sure…), it’s intimacy with God!
