Church Planting in southern France

Having spent almost three decades in France, Paul and Karan Davis are now in the process of planting a church in the southeastern corner of France in a town named Faverges. Overwhelmingly Roman Catholic and decidedly post-modern in worldview, France presents a significant challenge to the preaching of the gospel. Paul and Karan's faithfulness is a model for us in sharing our faith at home.

For several years the Stephens have led a growing gospel outreach to students on the campuses of University of South Florida, University of Tampa, and Hillsborough Community College. Recently they have begun to focus on the specific needs of the poor, the disenfranchised and the homeless, ministering to them directly and calling the church to awaken to its responsibilities to care for them. They are nearing the end of a 10-month stay in Manilla, the Philippines, along with eight other adults, ministering to the poor and learning new approaches and methods to "doing church."
