North American congregations may partner with us in a specific long term project. Your church may want to team with Clasons in developing the Lay Leadership Training ministry. Your youth ministry may want to partner with the youth group of one of our churches. Perhaps your congregation is multi-cultural and you would like to join Kaans in working with one of the Chinese churches, or one of the Vietnamese, Hmong, or Cambodian congregations. Each of the churches has special programs and visions that may interest one of the small groups in your congregation. Or you know one of our team members and would like to develop an ongoing team relationship with him/her. If you’d like to inquire about any of these opportunities contact the France field office.
Individuals & Churches desiring to support a missionary or ministry in France may do so through:
- The Great Commission Fund (United States)
- Global Advance Fund (Canada)
Specific Needs:
Operation Pinecone
A new effort to plant an International church in the Strasbourg area is well under way. Learn more about this church or send an email to Trinity International Church of Strasbourg to discover how you can partner.
Viroflay Building
The AECM church in Viroflay began in rented facilities and now meets at 5PM each Sunday in a Reformed Church building. Not having their own facilities has proven difficult in terms of organizing meetings, practices or special programs outside of the Sunday evening time slot. The C&MA has approved a building fund special to aide this congregation in their search for property. You can send donations through the GCF and designate the gift as: Viroflay church-building/ France / APS # 501
Scholarships for pastors
The C&MA provides partial education scholarships for young men preparing for pastoral ministry in the France Union of Alliance Churches (the AECM). The grant is given directly to the school where the candidate is studying. This is given every year in September. Scholarships are up to $2000 for the year, depending on the school. You can send donations through the GCF and designate the gift as: “France Leadership Training/ APS# 50502.”
EPI Building
The “Eglise Protestante International” (EPI) in Leguevin recently rented and renovated property and is now seeking to purchase. You can send donations through the GCF and designate the gift as: “APS# 01034 HARVEST PROMISE TOULOUSE”
New Church Plant
The C&MA mission participates with the French Union of Alliance Churches (AECM) to open new cell group “posts” in needy cities. You can send donations through the GCF and designate the gift as: “New Church Plants/ France / APS# 50126”.
