A HUGE thank you to everyone that donated with Superchats during the premiere of this video! You raised €475 for the church!!! TH-cam take a 30% cut of that, but I've decided to cover that myself, so I have just sent the total amount of €475 . Added to the previous €500 that I've already sent (as an advance on the ad revenue from this video, all of which I'm donating to the church fund), so far we've raised €975 for the restoration of the Church of Saint Martin in Vic! And I'm sure that many of you will have donated directly through the link below, so we're making a big difference to the renovation fund! Yay!
Stephanie & Michael; What a lovely video! Thank You for making it and showing us this beautiful historic church. Well done you for helping raise money for it's preservation 🥂 (I always watch all the adverts to help)
I feel love for the fact you are working on the fund raising...what a wonderful thing...and your singing of the Ave Maria was magnificent...thank you a million views!!
It's criminal that TH-cam takes at 30% cut. Is it possible to send money via PayPal or via an international Money Order? They HAVE to take less than 30%!
@@hopewalker8886 there is room for people who are not historians classically...but rather have a strong passion in a subject...look at Michael Portillo.
I think this vlog also gives us a sneak peek of how awesome michael and stephanie are going to be as co hosts for their new youtube channel looking at other chateaus. I know some people have suggested they should get their own tv show but i feel it would lose its freshness, immediacy and intimacy that these vlogs give us.
I agree - there would be more of a television 'template' format and the needs of advertisers to consider, which could mean that they, as hosts, would lose their freedom to improvise.
I know exactly what you mean, BUT I think if the show was well done... by the right people, I think it could be well done and really just give "support staff" to the two of them - driving, snacks, some help with editing, and that all important assistant I am desperate for Ms. Jarvis to have😜🥂
Yes great idea but they would lose their integrity. Fixer Upper chip & Joanna said they quit because they were told how to react & what to do. The show had to be “ produced” so their real ideas & format was lost. Probably the reason we love all the honesty & caring friends in the blogs. We are actually hearing words & getting the info the bloggers want us to have.
That was incredible - 900 years! I watched it twice - the live version by myself, then had my son come and watch it with me! Stephanie, thank you for the concert in that gorgeous chapel of the greatest story ever told! ♥️
Why dont you hold a concert there, sell tickets for people to attend physically and online! They'll have their money in no time! Beautiful episode, thank you
Wonderful idea!! they hold concerts in churches all. the. time - I've been to so many in Paris and Rome!! . I mean, what about the bingo halls in churches? not really too to precious correct? As a- Catholic - I think the reverence ship has sailed c'EST pas? ...well... that's a much larger, and much more irreverent conversation that is appropriate here... but I think it's a WONDERFUL idea! Stephanie if the church says yes - then go for it!! All for the greater good!! Btw - everytime someone says "the great and the good" I think "I know of one of those😊" say singing
Shannon Tymkiw: Well said, The church is a building. Where people can gather for any good cause. You don’t worship bricks & mortar. It’s just nice to preserve what the building has especially this one that depicts Jesus, his life & death which benefited us all.
This was a wonderful thing to do Stephanie. Can't imagine the study time it took for you to do it. If my humanities professors had as much passion about their subjects as you do, I would have absorbed the lessons immediately! Your singing at the end was beautiful and truly enhanced the beauty of the frescos. Thank you so much for producing this!
Coco here again I'm in absolute tears , of this beautiful find stephanie , you just keep giving and surprising us with these magnificent treasures Thank you so very much you are a darling Angel 😇 🙏
Stephanie you transported me right to this church with you and Michael. A glorious story and church indeed! Thank you for telling us all about its magnificence and making it easy for us to help restore this precious jewel!
MERCI beaucoup. This was such a welcome relief from news of hate swirling through the internet. Imagine all the wars and crisises this church has stood through, a ray of light and love in the darkest times. Your Ava Maria was a beautiful blessing.
My children and I absolutely love all your videos (and Michaels as well). Not only are they inspiring to make our own place more beautiful but also the history and art you show. We really appreciate all the work you put into them. Thank you!
Dear Michael and Stephanie: You have outdone yourselves with this video. What a beautiful initiative to promote donations by leading the efforts! We are definitely supporting the conservation of the church. The Ave Maria final was magnificent !
This is the content I come for 👏👏👏👏👏👏 history art Church Stephanie and Michael and bloody opera at the altar to top it all off. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💯 Brilliant wonderful - I love it. Keep up the great work 💯❤️
Since we're in a church,I'll make a confession.I've heard Ave Maria many times in my 57 years.I have NEVER begun to tear up and remain genuinely engaged through the whole song before! You sang with such genuine integrity.You did not try and make it a "Performance" piece.You were spot on in your expression of these beautiful and deeply meaningful lyrics! Wow! Thank you for this blessing! Love from Vermont
Oh Stephanie, You are a natural presenter. And thank you so much for giving respect and honor to the Christian faith as you were in that beautiful chapel. You were exquisite at teaching and illuminating French life for all of us! Basically, anything that you teach us is always so rapturous!
I have never been to an opera and would love to see even the tiniest part of the one at La Land. So glad they are coming there. Stephany we want more singing from you as well, please.
Stephanie the more I watch your channel the more impressed I am with you and all you’re doing. This episode was creative and informative... your voice angelic! Your Mother’s wedding was beautiful, your creativity an attention to detail is phenomenal. Best wishes to you, your family and friends.
Missing my father today on US Father's Day; he was a very spiritual man, firm in his belief of God's love for humankind. The energy of the little chapel here is so full of love, it comes through on your vlog, perfectly. You and Michael are both earth angels, and your singing at the end brought me to sweet tears. Thank you for amplifying this incredible chapel's restoration efforts through your joint platforms. A donation is being made in my dad Charles' memory. Bises.
I’m addicted to this channel ... I’m currently watching every video from the beginning. And I’ m falling more in love with this channel everyday. You inspire me to use my vintage dishes that I never use because I don’t have any occasion to use it. From now on I will use it just because I love beautiful things and they should be used everyday.
Stephanie, I have been watching your vlogs for many months now. I cannot get enough of them. You are undoubtably one of the most positive and determined vloggers I have ever watched. You are a natural at this and I have to say this last one describing your journey over the last15 years is my favorite. It was joyous to watch and of course I love Michael and his vlogs also. You are a great team, along with all the regular volunteers. They are such fun to watch. Your mother a kick. I’m awed by her energy as we are almost the same age. She put me to shame. Nick and his beautiful wife and son are lovely to watch, even the elusive Nick. I also love Michael Potts and Marie Wikk. I see why you have so many subscribers and Patreons. I cannot be a Patreon but will send you a small one time donation, because I know every little bit helps. Keep up the wonderful work you are doing. I cannot tell you how much it has meant to me in California during lockdown and I know it has meant a lot to so many others. You all feel like family to me now. Much love to all, Bonnie
💖👑👑💖xxxxxx Michael you and stephanie make a brilliant team .you both are really loved by your fans. This path you are both on is brilliant and you both just make us all feel happy because you both are really lovely people and both talented and kind and you both are passionate. In a few years once you have your projects done .would be amazing to see you both get a chateau together and save another chateau. You both are wonderful people. Stephanie your singing give me goose bumps just beautiful 💜🙏💜👏👏👏👏👏👏xxxx
Hi Coco 💃 here ready and waiting for the best program to hit our television for many years , I love love everyone of you Especially mummy , You bring such Joy and laughter to us all 🐐🦚🐓🌻🦔🌈😘
Such a beautiful church and how lovely Stephanie sings at the end.. Surely she is a trained person for how clear and beautiful her voice sincerely is.. Thank you for this upload and as always, for allowing us into your life
I would never have known about this church or it’s wonderful frescoes without your vlog. You are spreading a positive vibe from Lalande and beyond. I enjoyed your presentation and your singing of Ave Maria. Thank you!
This is an example of the very best of Stephanie, her enthusiasm and knowledge of history is simply amazing, a natural orator and we all benefit being able to watch and be educated also and introduced to wonderful vlogs, personally I always watch the vlog for a second or third time to be able to take in so much information, my God Stephanie listening to the singing was very spiritual and moving, I had tears of joy. Your father would be so proud of what you have achieved, you have followed your dream and it is joyful. Xxx
Loved this so much and your lovely Voice was a Joy to hear in such a Beautiful Chapel! Thank You, Stephanie and Michael! Love from Washington State, USA!
Thank you for bringing awareness of this incredible chapel to us! Loved hearing about it’s history and restoration through the years. Absolutely love that you are also donating all the ad revenue to the chapel as well! I’ve watched all the ads all the way through :) Thanks again!
Stephanie's presentation of this video and the explanation was incredible with a production quailty that all give a feel this was a part of commissioned series for a terrestrial channel.
WOW...Really AMAZING place...As an artist...like Michael...I can appreciate what an INCREDIBLE amount of work went into these frescos...PS...Lovely AVE MARIA at the end...!!!
What treasure this beautiful. Thank you for showing us and for singing. You have beautiful voice. I usually end my day with one of your videos, today, this was a wonderful start to my day. 🤗to you all at La Lande
Although I'm not religious, I have to admire the history and the artwork of the Church. I very much had the same reaction as Michael to this magnificent place. Thanks to Google translate, this American from the Detroit area just gave €10 to restore this amazing piece of history in France! I hope to visit someday.
So Glad you went to Vic Stephanie. If you want to see a stunning modern interpretation of a painted church interior, the church at Sous-Parsat just South of Ahun is amazing and uses such vivid colours. On the way there, visit the Abbey at Moutier-d’Ahun which has a beautiful old carved choir with quite beautifully depicted animals. So many treasures in our area to discover.
Beautifully done! Your passion for acient heritage is such a gift. You preserve history and are a real role model for me. Thank you for igniting my sunday with beautiful history, good human beings and your beautiful voice! I wish you success and that a lot of donations follow...
Stunning! I love hearing the history and seeing the beauty of these historical buildings. Your videos are always such a delight and love you and Michael together.
I hope one day I can visit this chapel! I hope the faithful from around the world, or even those fascinated by art, can help preserve this heritage! Thank you for this informative vlog and for helping the preservation of this 900-year old marvel ❤️ Hope you will include in your chateau visits with Michael local churches/chapels!! Can’t wait for moree. You have such lovely voice ❤️❤️❤️
I also agree with butterfly airways, a concert would be a amazing way to bring in funds towards restoration of this wonderful building. Video it as well and put up on you tube after series of concerts is complete to gain more revenue from the adverts and extra donations!!! Best of luck from Brisbane Queensland, Australia!!
Thank you for that beautiful history lesson Stephanie. You will do you region proud supporting the restoration. What beautiful voice you have!! The acoustics in the chapel are wonderful !!! x
An historical episode to awaken us to treasures forgotten..sleeping in a place of reverence..a kiss of life to bring donations hopefully to the rescue..thankyou Stephanie and Michael for this expos'e... Nothing surprises me about you two..it can be about other so many times...bringing us vignettes of life's treasures..happy days..♥
As a Sorbonne graduated, with a DEA in History of the Arts and Archaeology, I am happy that our lovely Stephanie is helping raise funds for this beautiful IX c Romanesque chapel of St. Martin in Vic. Her vlog still keeping me afloat during this hard time. In the USA, the main sport is tearing down statues of important persons in the history of the country, as they did in USSR, under Stalin. I have seen it done, under Ceausescu's communist rule, medieval churches, paintings and inventory have been destroyed by tanks and buried as well as statues. To distort history because you don't like it, or do battle with the art is a monstrosity.
Wonderful video today. When you started singing, my heart skipped a beat. I know you have a beautiful voice, but the setting and the song selection was perfect for the moment. Brava!
Wow Wow Wow - You had me at the Church, but bowled me over with singing Ave Maria. Maybe you could go to the congregation once a month there and sing like an angel. Everyone that goes could make a 1 Euro donation to the church. I think you would have them lining up out the door! The amount they need would clock up so quickly with that little enticer !!
Thank you, Stephanie and Michael, for using your platform to help with other priceless restorations. Imagine what good things could happen if everyone of your subscribers simply donated $1.00 each. That would be $75,000!!! I hope you will continue on this path. Only good can come from it.

Saint Martin church gets a dose of that Lalande joy! 💛
It’s is stunning. Again you have truly outdone yourself by taking us all on this little adventure. The singing was magnificent as well.
I feel love for the fact you are working on the fund raising...what a wonderful thing...and your singing of the Ave Maria was magnificent...thank you a million views!!

Thanks for this wonderful rendering of AVE MARIA Stéphanie. Bravo pour tout ce talent!
This is what I adore about this TH-cam channel. It's not just about the Chateau, it's about family, friends, love, kindness and generosity. xoxo
Yes, just love this video. Thank you Stephanie and Michael!!
The acoustics in that church so complemented Stephanie's lovely voice. This was a wonderful episode.
Thankyou.
I love the way in which you are using your online presences to try to preserve World heritage. Bravo to both of you! xox
Stephanie should have her own history tv show , like Lucy worsley
@@hopewalker8886 Stephanie knows lots of history, and is Oxford educated. Plenty of room for more than one history lover!
I was thinking the same thing...such a joy to watch and her passion and enthusiasm always comes through. Michael an excellent side kick too :-)
Hope Walker nothing wrong with having another historian. Some don’t even have the skills of public speaking nor the charm to captivate audiences.
baldr how so? Do you know everyone around the world? 🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@hopewalker8886 there is room for people who are not historians classically...but rather have a strong passion in a subject...look at Michael Portillo.

Because it’s a holy place and not a concert hall. Reverence is very important in the Catholic Church.
Butterfly airways: genius idea

Goodness, exquisite performance, I loved that.

That was fascinating. I love Art and Music. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely extraordinary. Thanks so much for taking us on this tour Stephanie. Now another reason to visit your beautiful region in France.
Wonderful presentation. I am learning so much. Thank you.
I get chills when you sing! In the church it's just so beautiful ❤
Thank you for Ave Maria at the end. It was lovely. Appreciating you and your channel here in the Smoky Mountains, USA
What a wonderful tour and result. How lovely for you to sing the Ave Maria. A blessing.
I also agree with butterfly airways, a concert would be a amazing way to bring in funds towards restoration of this wonderful building. Video it as well and put up on you tube after series of concerts is complete to gain more revenue from the adverts and extra donations!!! Best of luck from Brisbane Queensland, Australia!!
Ready to relax and be entertained....absolutely makes my day Stephanie!
Thank you for that beautiful history lesson Stephanie. You will do you region proud supporting the restoration. What beautiful voice you have!! The acoustics in the chapel are wonderful !!! x

Thank you, Stephanie and Michael, for using your platform to help with other priceless restorations. Imagine what good things could happen if everyone of your subscribers simply donated $1.00 each. That would be $75,000!!! I hope you will continue on this path. Only good can come from it.
Fantastic video!!!! Thank you for this great guided tour of the church.The information and the way you filmed is amazing!!! Love from Vermont
Another stellar video featuring two beautiful souls
