Parishes in France, especially in rural areas, seem to have difficulties in existing, renewing themselves, and being missionaries in the 21st Century. To address this challenge, some of these parishes are developing original initiatives emerging from the laity that are generating new movements. We will describe some examples of these initiatives and analyze the ecclesiological issues in three directions. The laity can exercise their charisms in movements, parishes, professional, or family settings. The ordained ministries are gifts of God, uncompetitive, and articulated to each other by the Holy Spirit in the aim of communion. The parish is a central and singular locus but it is neither isolated nor exclusive, but rather in relation to other ecclesial places or mission territories.

法国的教区，特别是在农村地区，似乎在生存，更新和成为21世纪的传教士方面遇到困难。为了应对这一挑战，这些教区中的一些正在制定出从懒惰中产生的新倡议，这些倡议正在产生新的动向。我们将描述这些举措的一些示例，并从三个方向分析教会问题。俗人可以在运动，教区，专业或家庭环境中行使自己的魅力。被任命的事工是上帝的恩赐，是没有竞争性的，并且是圣灵为了交流的目的而彼此清楚地表达出来的。该教区是一个中心且单一的场所，但它既不是孤立的也不是排他的，而是与其他教会地方或宣教领土有关的。
