On March 7-9, 2025, the Northern French Conference hosted a Lifestyle Coaching Skills workshop. The training was the first of its kind for the Franco-Belgium Union, convening pastors, health professionals, ministry leaders and volunteers passionate about health evangelism. Pr. Ruben Abreu, Union president and Health Ministry director, welcomed attendees with a call to be the hands of Jesus for the many secular people living across French cities. Pr. Emile Lazar, evangelist for the Conference and training organizer and host, joined pastors and their church leaders who expressed a desire to follow Christ’s method of reaching people by using the coaching skills they learned in the workshop. Dr Katia Reinert from GC Health Ministries gave the training and spoke at the conference pastors’ meeting, where they considered how coaching and health outreach can be an effective tool integrated alongside gospel preaching.
