A French opinion and marketing research institute (IFOP) has released the findings of a recent survey on the relationship of the French to religion. The IFOP survey reveals that fewer and fewer French people believe in God (51%), a 15% decrease from 1947 when 66% of respondents claimed to be believers.
Equally interesting is that the vast majority (91%) of those completing the survey felt that the Coronavirus pandemic had not ignited in them a desire to connect with their faith and religious practices. However, 21% of French respondents said that the 2019 fire at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris had stirred in them a religious feeling or spiritual hunger.

The Faculté Jean Calvin in Aix-en-Provence plays a strategic role in training pastors and lay leaders to be a light in the midst of the darkness and disillusionment that are so prevalent within French society.
Will you join us in praying for the seminary? Will you partner with The Huguenot Fellowship to ensure that the strategic work of Faculté Jean Calvin goes forward “from strength to strength” (Psalm 84) ?
