Benjamin & Amanda Owens | WorldVenture

France
FBA supported since 2007

Benjamin and Amanda are creatively communicating the Gospel to start churches through new technologies and meaningful relationships in the suburbs of Paris. In a country where only three percent of the population is born-again Christians, the Owens are depending on God’s strength and direction for their ministry.

  • Pray for their summer events at their church, specifically for Vacation Bible School and an English camp.
  • Pray that many families respond to the upcoming Father's Day outreach in their community.
  • Pray for the time of fellowship at their church retreat on May 26-27. Ask God that the church body will grow closer together and closer to the Lord.
