The great return to God: France is being baptized like never before We were told that France would be definitively secularized, emptied of its beliefs, turning its back on the Church forever. The figures have just proved the prophets of emptiness wrong. Year after year, France is breaking records for adult baptisms — and this movement is not losing momentum. It is accelerating. In 2026, 21,386 catechumens will enter the Catholic Church thru baptism. Their number has increased by more than 20% compared to the previous record of the previous year. In ten years, the number of these new...

New Age, crystals, and spiritual retreats: France in search of meaning is looking everyplace They meditate in the morning, consult their therapist in the afternoon, read their astrological chart in the evening. They carry crystals in their bags, follow spiritual influencers on TikTok, and sign up for "soul reconnection" retreats on weekends. Welcome to New Age France — a mass phenomenon that can no longer be ignored.

And yet, the majority of them live below the poverty line, without a decent pension or a safety net, trapped in a Kafkaesque administrative void that the government has perpetuated for decades. A 2025 parliamentary report on the “income continuity” of artists and authors highlights the structural precariousness affecting the majority of them, considerable income disparities even within the artistic...

Our Churches Are Burning: The Deafening Silence in the Face of a Cultural and Spiritual Disaster They are burning. For years, in silence, far from the headlines, France’s churches have been attacked, desecrated, and set on fire. Centuries of history are going up in smoke. And France, all too often, looks the other way. In 2024, 50 attempted arson attacks and church fires were recorded, compared to 38 in 2023—an increase of more than 30 percent. Thirty percent in a single year. If any other place of worship or cultural heritage site were to suffer such a wave of attacks, there would be...
