Our church...

Why build a church at the dawn of the 3rd Millenary ?

It's important, It's a matter of urgency.
The creation of a Pastoral Centre in the heart of Marne-La-Vallée
is a major neccessity.

In fact, each of the 10 churches of the Parish
Bussy Saint-Georges, Bussy Saint-Martin, Chanteloup, Collégien, Conches, Ferrières
Gouvernes, Guermantes, Montévrain, Saint-Thibault-des-Vignes
cannot greet more than a hundred persons.

The population of the new city which is growing  day after day
has already 2500 residents.

What's more 50 to 6000 residents are awaited at the skyline of the skyline of the year 2000.

How to liven and organize the spiritual life of such an important population ?

The only way is to build a church able to meet this new congregation.
