Joe & Karen Mellon – CrossWorld

Joe and Karen have been involved with church planting in Chambery, France, since 1987. They seek opportunities to reach students at a local university, teach English camps and work in a Christian publishing house.  Joe's main ministry is the University work called the "FEU". This is an evangelistic/discipleship ministry that reaches out to the two campuses at Chambery. There are approximately 8,000 students studying in their town. Along with this work, he directs camps in the summer for missionary children, as well as French children that have a desire to learn a bit of English.  In his spare time, he is the head coach of the American football team in Chambery.  Karen works in Lyons twice a week at a publishing company, Editions Cle, which provides Scripture commentaries and on-line helps to the French-speaking world.  She helps with different aspects of the work, particularly in the area of book-keeping.
