Keep the people of Paris in your prayers as we all witness the terrible tragedy of the burning of Notre Dame Cathedral. 850 years of Gothic history up in flames, 13,000 visitors a day, but the spirit of hope is more powerful.

Thanks to medieval engineering: the stone vault protects Notre Dame Church so that even if the roof burns or collapses, the rest is saved. The interior, the pulpit, and the Cross are intact.  Fr Fourier a chaplain to the Fire Department saved the Blessed Sacrament and the relic of the True Cross! God bless the 400 fire fighters and emergency services.

God bless Paris!
