Christian Church
Avenue Prince Hinoi
Papeete
Tahiti
French Polynesia (Ocenania)
Address-No.: 12193 / 5067
The Christian Church is the result of a split which occurred in 1958, when the parish of Taunao left the EEPF. It protested against the decision of the EEPF to appoint its pastor to another parish. The move was also motivated by its political stance at the time of the referendum of 1958 (see above). This church was in favor of independence from France, while the EEPF was against. In those days the EEPF (called the “Mission protestante”) was still under the leadership of French missionaries. There is not much difference between the order of service and basic teachings of the Christian Church and the Evangelical Church, except that each parish of the former is autonomous and all its pastors are “tent-makers.”
