Paris’ Notre Dame to host first mass since coronavirus lockdown in symbolic gesture of hope
Just seven people will attend a Christian service at the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France on April 10 to commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The mass at the fire-devastated church will be broadcast nationwide.
A small Easter Sunday mass will be celebrated at a church near the Louvre museum the following Sunday.
“Only a few priests will attend the masses that we will celebrate during the Holy Week, and people will be able to follow services on radio or on television,” Paris Archbishop Michel Aupetit announced.
