Franco-Provencal in France
PRINT VERSION:
SHARE:
Franco-Provençal is a language that straddles France, Italy and Switzerland.
They can be found in many occupations. They live in a place where the majority language might be French, Italian or German. Like many Europeans, the Franco-Provencal people speak more than one language fluently.
Most of them are Christian, either Roman Catholic or Protestant. Churches provide them with an identity and a place for major life events like weddings and funerals, but they are not considered to be a place to offer spiritual guidance. Most have a secular worldview that conflicts with biblical teachings.
The Franco-Provencal people need to seek and find what Jesus Christ has for them. They need his guidance.
Pray for the Franco-Provencal to enjoy the abundant life offered by Jesus Christ.
Pray for Franco-Provencal disciples to make more disciples.
Pray for Franco-Provencal leaders to understand the blessings they can have if they follow Christ.
