Introduction / History

Franco-Provençal is a language that straddles France, Italy and Switzerland.


What Are Their Lives Like?

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.

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.
