Welcome home!

We are so glad you’re with us. Whether in person or online, for a short time or a lifetime, sure in faith or full of doubt, you belong here.

The Cathedral community is multilingual, multinational, settled and transient, and united in the name and love of Christ. We are planted in Paris and strive to spread God’s love throughout the city and indeed the world.

Our worship reflects our deeply held belief that all people are connected in Christ. We are a parish that values our liturgy and music, the Word, and above all a welcoming Eucharist. It is God’s table, not ours; all are welcome.

You’ll find many opportunities to join ministry at the Cathedral, from serving as an acolyte or choir member to volunteering at the Sandwich Ministry. Our programs reflect the evolving ethos of the Cathedral: flexible, grassroots, and inclusive. From our earliest days, we have offered support and assistance to those in need, whatever their situation.

Our congregation first came together in Paris in the 1830’s, meeting in various chapels and throughout the city. In 1859, we became the first American Episcopal church established outside the United States. In 1886, we built and moved to our current campus. In 1923, we became the Cathedral to the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe.

We know that our future lies in our youth, and we are committed as a community of faith to play a vital role in shaping their spiritual growth and development as full members of the household of God. Building on our past and our journey towards inclusion, we strive to create a future of faith, love, and charity.

Let’s do it together.

Give us a call, send an email, or find us at coffee hour—we can’t wait to get to know you.

Peace,

James Harlan
