A heart for france

About Us

God's ways are mysterious, but I must say that since my commitment to follow Jesus Christ in 1985 life with God has been one big adventure. While teaching in a small town in Western Victoria in Australia I felt called to look into mission, to understand what it meant and if it was still relevant on the 20th Century. In 1989/90 I went to Niamey, the capital of Niger in French West Africa, for a Short Term Service as a French teacher at Sahel Academy, a school for missionary kids. This was a life changing experience, because I realized two things: I really wanted to study the Bible full time and I needed to improve my French! Solution: do a 3 year Theology Diploma in an Evangelical French College in the Paris region. The Lord led the way and not only did I realize how much Christian workers were needed in France but the Lord organized for me to stay in France permanently - yes! I met my French husband Pascal, at Bible College. Together we have three wonderful children. Pascal is now pastor in a French Evangelical Church Union and I am a supported missionary working alongside him.

What are we doing?

My ACE ministry consists of; 

A=Accompanying (counselling, discipline),

C=Coordinating (particularly the Vitality Pathway, revitalizing
churches), and 

E=Evangelism to bring more into the Kingdom.

My ministry is recognized by the Union of Free Evangelical Churches in France with whom my husband serves as pastor. I coordinate a national team seeking to create healthy, missional churches. Ministry involves equipping the local church to reach its community by: discipline, mentoring, counselling and training others; organizing events and coordinating children and youth ministries and particularly reaching out to women.
