Ricardo L. Walker
Ricardo arrived in the suburbs of Paris, France in 2012. He served for 8 years at Brie Church as a singer, parking team coordinator, as director of Sunday school for 3-6 year olds, as Small Groups director and a term as elder. His primary giftings are 1-on-1 discipleship and building deep relationships – skills God grew and honed at Christ United Church in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
In 2020, Ricardo joined the Leadership team of Eglise Sans Murs (Church Without Walls) in the 15th Arrondissement (parish) of Paris. The 15th is the largest neighborhood in square miles and in university student population. Ricardo’s areas of focus at ESM are disciple-making, shepherding/member care, worship leader, and facilitator for community outreach events.
ESM is, first and foremost, a Gospel-centered house church that makes disciples who make disciples, that blesses the neighborhood through service, and that fully engages in the life of its neighbors. Studying the Word together is the foundation for following Christ together. Serving together in creative ways to meet felt needs puts the Word into practice and leads to love, for one another and for the neighbors.
Would you consider giving monthly to help Ricardo and ESM make disciple-makers?
Prayer Requests:
- Pray God would build the team, enlarge its territory, and use them to reach the lost in Paris 15eme.
- Pray that the team would be united in prayer, in service and in love.
