A burglary occurred overnight on October 6 and 7 at the Desert Museum in Mialet, France. Surveillance footage shows a suspect breaking a side door and stealing approximately one hundred gold Huguenot crosses dating from the 18th to the 20th century. Denis Carbonnier, the museum conservator, told Réforme that the thief targeted the gold items specifically, leaving silver crosses behind. The gendarmerie has opened an investigation and seized the video evidence. The museum, which documents French Protestant history, is a significant cultural site in the Gard region.
The United Protestant Church of Fontainebleau is organizing a series of events to mark the anniversary of the 1685 revocation of the Edict of Nantes. Held in Fontainebleau, France, the program includes an ecumenical prayer vigil in Avon, a historical lecture by Crystel Bernat at the local temple, and two conferences by Hubert Bost at the Palace of Fontainebleau. The church states these activities aim to highlight themes of fraternity and dialogue while remembering past persecutions. The schedule also honors Christians currently facing persecution, featuring a prior presentation by Arnold Daya from Open Doors.
