Lauren Moore
Pioneers
Lauren has been serving with Pioneers in southwest France for almost 12 years. During that time she has been involved in four different church plants, each in a different stage: the Basque Coast Baptist Church (now an established church with a pastor), the Surf Church Hossegor (a small but growing church that started in 2009), and a house church in Bidache (started in 2019). In 2015 she started Les Cairns, the first evangelical church in Lourdes, a Catholic pilgrimage city, in over 40 years. Her experience in Catholicism allows her to train other missionaries in understanding Roman Catholicism to reach Europe. She is also currently completing her doctoral thesis with VU Amsterdam and Union School of Theology (Wales), focusing on the impact and influence of apparitions of Mary.
