L'ange - Sainte Trinité

This beautiful papier maché angel stood beside the altar at Sainte Trinité church.  The créche was off to one side. The crates used here were also stacked on the altar. Lovely

Joyeux Noël à toi et toute ta famille

La Crèche

The Église de la Sainte-Trinité, is now one of my favorite churches in Paris. Last January I featured the beautiful papier maché angel here. Today I share the entire manger scene.  Note the wooden crates stacked all around.   These were also used on the altar.  A very rustic touch in this magnificent place of worship.

A favorite French carol for you here.

Église de la Sainte-Trinité

This magnificent papier maché angel was part of one of the most beautiful nativities I have ever seen. Made, I'm assuming, from papier maché, each figure was lit from within.  I'll share more next December !

Sunday Paris Church Series - Église de la Sainte-Trinité

The Église de la Sainte-Trinité houses not one but two organs. I think the bell tower is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen, and that cobalt blue sky at dusk made it more so.
