Who Is the Evangelical Baptist Church of Marseille?
The Evangelical Baptist Church of Marseille is located at 102 rue d'Italie, in the 6th arrondissement, just steps from Place Castellane. It describes itself as a family-oriented, multicultural church, guided by the motto "Welcome – Grow – Serve," where everyone is invited to find their place, grow in faith, and serve the Lord Jesus. The church is affiliated with the Federation of Evangelical Baptist Churches of France (FEEBF), itself a member of the European Baptist Federation and the Baptist World Alliance, as well as the Protestant Federation of France and the National Council of French Evangelicals (CNEF).
The church identifies as Christian, Protestant, evangelical, and Baptist. Committed to the principles of the Reformation (Christ alone, grace alone, faith alone, Scripture alone), it emphasizes the importance of personal conversion and individual profession of faith, the occasion on which believers are baptized. Its governance is congregational: the local community of believers constitutes the church in its own right, while remaining connected with other Baptist churches for mutual encouragement in faith and shared mission.
Worship services are held every Sunday at 10:00 a.m., open to all, believers or not, followed by a friendly time over coffee. Children under three are cared for in a nursery, while Sunday school welcomes older children after the first half hour of the service. During the week, the church offers prayer times, a biweekly Bible study, a "Bible in a Year" reading group, a youth group for ages 15 to 25, and home groups spread across several Marseille neighborhoods, along with a monthly fellowship meal.
To extend this community life online, the church shares its sermons on its YouTube channel, "FEEBF Marseille," allowing anyone to follow the teaching remotely. Its website also features a detailed calendar of weekly activities, directions, and contact information, making it easy to plan a first visit or stay informed about the life of the congregation.
