Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Has Worshipped in Épinal, France, for 54 Years

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been established in Épinal for 54 years, according to a local report. Its chapel is at 28 rue de Bellevue, where two missionaries greeted a visiting reporter on the chapel’s blue carpet.

The two missionaries, known in the church as “Elders,” are Colton Schindler, 20, from Utah, and Stephan Ross, 21, from Pennsylvania. Schindler described missionary service as a personal choice. Young members may commit to two years of service between the ages of 18 and 26, and are sent to a location somewhere in the world.

Schindler said the missionaries’ role is to invite people to join Christ. The report’s account of his explanation ends there, and the remainder of the article was not available in the supplied text.
