A "White Zone" in France
2 to 3 times fewer evangelical Christians than
the national average
Who lives in the White zone ?
The five departments in the “white zone” : Mayenne (pop 307 000), Sarthe (pop 566 000), Maine-et-Loire (pop 820 000), Vendée (pop 686 000) and Deux-Sèvres (pop 375 000).
The churches
A little more than 40 evangelical churches on a territory larger than Belgium (31.207 km2) for 1.4 Million people. Existing churches are essentially concentrated in urban area

Over half the population do not have a church within 20km of their home
