An evangelical church in Manosque (Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur) was attacked in the night of the 18th to 19th May.
The church is a member of the Assemblies of God in France (UNADF).
The Bibles and other books inside the church had been stacked up and burnt, pastor Alain Denizou told local newspaper Le Dauphine.
The National Council of Evangelical Churches in France (CNEF) expressed its “solidarity and prayers” for the church members in Manosque.

It is “extremely unfortunate that places of worship become a target of crime”, the CNEF said, and offered the help of “our legal department” to the church.
