General Strategy
General Strategy: We desire a movement of Biblical churches throughout the country. This requires friendship evangelism, youth ministries, technical skills and disciplers, all with a heart for God and for the French people. CrossWorld missionaries involved in training, publishing, translation and evangelism all contribute to this end.
Type of Ministry
Ministry Type: "Though France is one of the least-reached and most-hardened areas in Europe, churches have been established in several key cities in southeastern France. Several others are in development stages. CrossWorld missionaries were an integral part of establishing the largest francophone evangelical printing press in the world, which is now independent.
CrossWorld missionaries are involved in:
Famille Je t'Aime, a counseling and family life training center;
Editions Clé, a literature publishing organization;
FEEL - an electronic library project for Bible Study and ministry tools to reach the 200 million strong Francophone world as well as various church-planting ministries "
