Nowadays, the Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) is probably the most widespread Church ofaladura origin. This article offers some details on the history of this African prophetic Church in France and Belgium, and highlights some dynamics that characterize CCC parishes in the two countries. Actually, the respective situations of the Church are quite contrasted. The French parishes are more numerous, more ancient, and recruit faithful of more diverse ethno-national origins, while the few Belgian branches are mostly attended by Nigerians. In both cases however, the relations that the parishes have with the pastoral centres of the Church are somehow paradoxical, and display both claims of local independence, and a dependence grounded in the mode of progression in the ecclesial hierarchy, which depends on these centres. ; info:eu-repo/semantics/published
