Eglise Protestante Unie Lyon Rive Gauche
Now that we share their premises AND a pastor, we can say we have close links with the Eglise Protestante Unie Rive Gauche parish in Lyon. Most Sundays we worship in the Espace Bancel, but we sometimes join with our French brothers and sisters in the magnificent Grand Temple.
Peter Hanson is a Lutheran pastor working with us and the Eglise Protestante Unie. Find out about our shared mission project Passeways.
