Thousands attend 'biggest gathering of evangelicals in France'

Source: La Place 2025 | Facebook

Thousands in France gathered for the inaugural La Place conference, described by charity France Mission as the country’s biggest gathering of evangelicals.

The event, held at a conference centre in the Bois de Vincennes, to the south-east of Paris, provided an opportunity for French evangelical churches to connect and worship together. Around 3,000 people were reported to have attended.

The annual gathering started in much smaller fashion back in 1948, founded as the Centre Evangelique (Evangelical Centre). However, it has grown since then, moving to professional exhibition centres and hosting bigger scale events.
