Know Our Church
Founded in March 2010, Église Primitive de la Renaissance (EPR) was born out of a small group of passionate believers, dedicated to prayer, the Word of God, and the mission of evangelism. From these humble beginnings emerged a vibrant, Christ-centered community, a place of revival, restoration, and spiritual transformation.
Under the inspired leadership of our senior pastor, Nicolas Rigaudon, and his committed team of ministry leaders, EPR remains faithful to its calling: to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to walk alongside believers as they grow in their relationship with God.
Like any growing church, our community has experienced both challenges and victories. Yet through it all, we have remained steadfast in faith, united in vision, and committed to the calling God has entrusted to us. Every trial has drawn us closer to the Lord, deepening our dependence on Him, and every victory has strengthened our testimony of His unshakable grace. Together, we move forward with hope, fully convinced that the best is yet to come.
Rooted in the Great Commission of Matthew 28:18–19, our mission is clear: to go and make disciples of all nations, equipping them to live out their faith with conviction, determination, and Holy Spirit-empowered boldness.
We are a diverse and growing family of believers, united by our love for God, our faith in Jesus Christ, and our desire to live according to His Word. At EPR, we strive to provide a welcoming, peaceful, and spiritually nourishing environment where everyone—regardless of background—can experience healing, grow in faith, and discover the purpose God has destined for their lives.
Our commitment is anchored in three core pillars: teaching sound biblical doctrine, cultivating authentic worship, and building strong, Christ-centered relationships within the body of our church. Through worship, fellowship, service, and spiritual guidance, our goal is to strengthen your faith, nourish your soul, and draw you ever closer to the heart of God.
