France is a largely secular country but has a long and prominent place in the history of Christianity. Roman Catholicism and Protestantism have both declined to shadows of their former selves. At the moment, the fastest growing religion in France is Islam. The European Christian Mission (ECM) aims to change this.
As the ECM website states, "God has not abandoned France." In the last thirty-five years, over one thousand new evangelical churches have been planted, bringing the total to approximately twenty four hundred. Many rural areas still have no evangelical church.
ECM has six missionary teams in France, mainly in the Loire Valley, Paris, and Marseilles.
