Sunday Church Series - The American Cathedral in Paris



The American Cathedral in Paris welcomes visitors each Sunday by serving cookies and coffee in the back of the sanctuary following the church service.  I've worshipped there on two occasions and and always enjoyed the service and getting to meet the members and clergy.

Today I join James' Weekend Reflections right here!

    Those pipes look like they communicate directly with God. Very majestic.

    I think the flags do add a lot. They bring the colors of the stained glass throughout the sanctuary. Beautiful!

    An American Cathedral in Paris?!?!? Where? Why?

    Jack, Avenue George V. Why , because there are lots of expats in Paris that like to worship here, not to mention tourists like me that love hearing a sermon en anglais! I even heard Olivia de Haviland read the Scripture one Sunday.

    «Louis» is pleased to see that you posted this photo of the interior. He was never able to get to the church when it was open, so he has only seen it from the outside.

    What a beautiful cathedral. The columns looks magnificent. This cathedral is truly a place for worship with its serene ambiance.

    How lovely. I've visited this church but never for a service. I can imagine it would be wonderful.

    I agree, the smiles of the "personnel" and the coffee and cookies really add to the atmosphere! :-)
