The Paris project just finished up, according to Heather Anderson, a Canadian who helped lead the project. A group of students from French-speaking Canada went to Paris to get to know French students and talk to them about how God has made a difference in their lives. The photo above shows the Sorbonne, a famous Parisian university.
They meet French students in several ways. One is to strike up conversations over lunch in a "mensa", or student cafeteria.
Another approach that everyone likes is called "Soularium," which is a deck of cards with photos on them. The Canadian student would meet a French student, or group of students, sitting in a park, then ask which picture best expressed their concept of God. These questions would often lead to deep discussions about God and faith and life, and how it all fits together.
The average French student has no interest in God -- But most enjoyed talking about the Soularium pictures.
