Respuesta :

Answer: The correct answer is A. The French church sent a small number of Jesuit priests to New France.

Explanation: The process of conversion was quite peaceful. In fact, the French tried to bridge the gap between cultural differences that they had with Native Americans by studying native languages, translating hymns and prayers, showing the natives pictures of Hell or manipulating the natives’ own fears in order to provoke mental images and make the natives to reconsider their mortality.
