The correct response is: The French church sent a small number of Jesuit priests to New France.
The French approach to converting Native Americans to Christianity primarily involved the efforts of Jesuit missionaries, who engaged in dialogue and tried to establish relationships with Indigenous peoples, rather than the more coercive methods used by some other colonial powers.
