Explore Paris

Famously known as the City of Lights, Paris shines with global influence, especially in its diversity, culture, history and art. Of the 12 million people living in the greater Paris area, only about 1% identify as evangelical Christians. France is considered one of the most atheistic countries in the world. The ReachGlobal Paris City Team is seeking to engage parts of society that remain untouched by the gospel.

Meet Our Missionaries

Our vision is to see Paris transformed by the power of the gospel, with impact that extends regionally and globally. We long to see every pocket of society—atheists and Muslims, fashion designers and engineers, locals and refugees—engaged with the gospel. Our desire is to catalyze a citywide movement of believers who will join together to bring gospel transformation across Paris.

Our team currently includes five full-time staff members, several part-time staff and more joining soon.

How You’ll Serve

We welcome those who love the Lord, have a humble spirit and are open to learning and embracing a very different culture. Whether your background is in art, music, teaching, tech or church ministry, there may be a place for you to contribute. Ministries we are cultivating include:

• Art and music outreach
• Ministry to international students
• Teaching English or French to refugees and immigrants
• Supporting church life and ministries
• Technology support and creative projects
• Team care and administration

This list is not exhaustive, and we value each person's unique gifts and passions.

Housing

Housing arrangements vary depending on the makeup of the group. Options may include shared Airbnbs, dorm-style studios, school housing, short-term apartment rentals or renting a room in a local home.

What You’ll Learn
