Spotlight Update: Jason and Cassie Harris in France

International Mission Board missionary Jason Harris said he saw God at work this past summer as hundreds of volunteers worked with his team around the 2024 Olympics in Paris, France.

Thousands heard the gospel and took copies of portions of Scripture, and a number professed new faith in Christ as they talked with volunteers. The team also saw many people visit a church building for the first time, which Jason said is huge.

“For many Europeans, even stepping into a church is a giant step,” he explained.

He shared that they were “greatly encouraged” when two men they were playing volleyball with came to an event at the church and participated, “experiencing the church as a warm place.”

“We are praying for great follow up with those and the many others whom our interns and team members received phone numbers from,” Jason said. “Join us in prayer! And thank you for praying; these victories are a result of a concerted labor of prayer.”

In addition to praying for those who live in Paris, you can also pray for the following:

• • That those from other cities and countries would be able to find Christian community and continue growing in their faith when they go home after the Olympics
  • That believers would share the gospel when they return to their home countries
