Sowing Freedom, Reaping Joy Anne Marie St Clair

Vivianne deBouchet is a woman who lives her Catholic faith. When her husband, Jean-Luc, comes into possession of a Terrebonne Parish sugar plantation in the 1850's, Vivianne and Jean-Luc's faith propel them to create the community of Belle Terre. Join Vivianne and Jean-Luc, and Pascal and Mathilde Chauvin as they move their families to the plantation Teach Abhainn. Meet the slaves who will become free people of color. Meet Seamus and Eileen O'Malley the former owners of Teach Abhainn, and meet Henri and Haloka Allard, an Acadian fur trapper and his wife. Celebrate with the residents of Belle Terre as a slave operated plantation becomes a community of God's children, equal in the eyes of God and each other.
