A Light In The City Of Lights
Paris, the city of lights and a favourite destination for tourists from around the globe, is also home to one of Europe's most exciting emerging churches.
Hillsong, Paris is growing quickly, with a strong passion to serve the city at all levels, whatever the cost.
Under the leadership of Pastor Brendan White and his wife Camille, the church has doubled in the past year alone. Since starting two Sunday services a year ago, more than 300 people have been added to the church. Previously, the church had been meeting on Friday nights only, with a strong cell group base running alongside.
Meetings are held in a great downtown complex which allows for many and varied activities in the life of the church.
Mal Fletcher visited the church again recently, to train over 100 leaders and to speak in the main services.
A long-time friend of the Hillsong network since its inception in Australia, Mal said after the visit: "It is so exciting and encouraging to see this kind of church emerging in one of Europe's most amazing cities."
"Brendan and his team are doing what many people said could not be done in this, a formally Catholic nation and now Europe's most avowedly secular country."
"And they are doing it not just with sharp church services, but with a great deal of community work going on in the background. I am very proud of these young leaders and believe that we are all going to hear lot more about this church in days to come."
