France is charming and beautiful but she has a very deep spiritual need and is one of the least evangelized nations on earth. While France is indeed beautiful and inviting, spiritually it is dark and uninviting. The French have become largely nonreligious and atheistic while Muslims are growing rapidly – even converting unused cathedrals into mosques. The need for Christian workers has never been greater. As missionaries who deeply desire to make Christ known, our prayer is that you’ll be moved to take action in some way to support evangelistic efforts, either through intercessory prayer or a financial partnership.
Why France Historical Background Strategic Location Joie de Vivre Our Response Right now there is one church for every 80,000 people in France, but the goal of the French believers is to plant new churches and one day have 1 church for every 10,000 people. Churches in France are often small (between 4 and 40 people) and face a lot of opposition, but they are the pathways through which God’s love is displayed. They are like tiny candles illuminating a dark room. Many more need to be lit in order to give the French the light to see. |

Christian History of France – some fact, some speculation as many first and second century accounts have been lost and their sources are from later centuries. But interesting nonetheless!
