This is the time when students from overseas and from other parts of France are arriving in Nantes. A couple in our assembly, plus some other friends, are heading up the ministry of “A Heart for the World”, which is held close to the university. There are remarkable opportunities to share the Gospel with students […]

Every day hundreds of people pass by our church’s storefront and some come in. Since the beginning of the year we’ve given out 40 Bibles. Our storefront allows us to connect with our neighborhood. Pray that we will be able to connect and share the Good News of Jesus Christ. […]

The Paris City Project will take on a new dimension this school year. We long to see the Gospel take root in our neighbourhood, producing good fruit. Please pray for this and for Matthew as he enters his final phase of studies and has his master’s thesis to complete. […]

While recently in Belgium we conducted a mini Bible School. It is one week of intensive classes for young people between the ages of 18 and 30. It is a joy to be able to teach God’s Word and to see its effects in young people’s lives. Many return to their Churches motivated for God’s […]

We are enjoying having a student helper at the bookshop for this summer. He will probably be able to man the shop on his own quite soon. Pray for this ministry. […]

Today was the final ladies’ meeting before the summer break. It is thrilling to see the ladies open up to share their joys and struggles. Some of the men have suggested it would be interesting to have something specifically for them too. Pray that if it is the Lord’s will, something could be put in […]

We had a meeting with the leaders of our small groups at the Beaujoire church. It was interesting to have feedback from them.

As a body of believers, we continue to minister to migrants by means of evangelism and practical ministries such as food, clothing, paperwork and teaching French. Evangelism is a challenge. […]

This year I’ve begun to help out in a small assembly. There’s a good women’s group there that meets once a month. Some ladies from other worship places also attend. They wanted me to talk about women in the Bible: what God says, how women are perceived, their ministry in the church. I’ve given two […]

Once again, we went out with our evangelistic team and had some great conversations with people in the center of our town. We had opportunities to distribute Christian literature, including several gospels. Please pray for these efforts. […]

We have started renovating our new building. One of the joys is realizing the number of students that actually do stroll by every day, stopping to eat lunch on our terrace because there is a little wall to sit on and some shade from the sun which is already hot here. We look forward to […]

A new activity has been launched at our church dealing with various issues that crop up in marriage, from a Biblical viewpoint. A meal is served at the event, and the church has invested in little round tables for two, so that husband and wife can have conducive circumstances to talk to each other. Pray […]
