There is an international church, the pastor is American, the service is in English. There is a synagogue (conservative) the Rabbi holds the service in English. There is a Catholic church, and I've heard one priest delivers the service in English in the evenings? There are mosques and a lot of Catholic churches delivering services in French. - Aug 2022
