David and Aude Tripet
The following is a description of a ministry project of Impact France in collaboration with Eglise La Maison.
David and Aude Tripet
David is Swiss and grew up in the Swiss mountains. Aude is French and grew up in Normandy. They have served in several ministries in France and Switzerland. We share a heart for Christian unity and the proclamation of God’s Word to all generations and in all walks of life.
In 2005, David became a pastor at the age of 25 in Le Locle, Switzerland. In 2008, they married and had the joy of having three children between 2012 and 2016: Joshua, Anaëlle, and Noé. They remained committed to pastoral service together until early 2018.
From Switzerland to Toulouse, France
In 2019, after a sabbatical year, the Lord clearly called them to Toulouse to plant a church in the city center. Toulouse is the 4th largest city in France and the leading student city after Paris, with approximately 140,000 students. It’s also the European hub for aeronautics and space; a city of innovation with the fastest growth in France.
They decided to leave everything behind, join the Christian Assembly of Toulouse, and pioneer a project with them for students and Generation Z. During the COVID epidemic, they began evangelistic outreach to students through the Lexington Café.
Church Planting
in 2022, in conjunction with the ACT ministry team, they planted La Maison, a church in downtown Toulouse that aims to be relevant to those who wouldn’t normally come to a church. In less than three years, they’ve seen lives magnificently transformed: a young man from a Muslim dictatorship, a prostitute, a stripper, several atheists, and others. They’ve had the joy of 10 baptisms, and more requests are coming in.
Since January 2025, David has been serving in the M4 ministry, setting up the M4 Ready program to train 18-30 year-olds in church planting through the various church families throughout France.
He is also involved in the apostolic team of their church family, RNC Ariel, which involves commitments in France and Switzerland.
How your support blesses them
Through your support, they can more easily give time to the ministry. At the moment they have a very tight budget. David keeps a carpentry job to make ends meet and Aude has to keep a part-time job as an executive assistant. They would be delighted to be able to devote themselves fully to the ministry, in order to bear more fruit.
Would you prayerfully consider supporting the Tripet family to reach more people with the hope of Christ?
