January 15th, 2024 | Martin Luther King Day
Today, we celebrate the life and witness of Martin Luther King, Jr. While in the United States, today is a national holiday, even here in France, we take on Dr. King’s prophetic witness as both challenge and encouragement for us to expand our work to Become Beloved Community here at the Cathedral.
Stewardship 2024: Give Cheerfully
Our Stewardship Season, which focuses on the joy of giving this year, will kick off on this coming Sunday, January 14th. It will be filled with speakers, sermons, and reflections to help us think about what our Cathedral means to us, what ministries God is calling us into, and how we can support our community in 2024.

Reflecting on our Celebration of Ministry
On Sunday, November 5th 2023 we were delighted to welcome friends from far and wide both online and in person to our Celebration of Ministry.
Conflict in the Holy Land Update
All of us are distressed by the current violence in Israel and Gaza. Destruction and death in any part of the world are horrific, but to see such devastation in the land where Jesus preached about the love of neighbor is particularly disturbing.
“Love in a Box” (LIAB) is now “Love in a Backpack”!
“Love in a Box (LIAB)” is now “Love in a Backpack”!
The Love in a Box (LIAB) program is a cherished annual tradition bringing the joy of the holidays to children in need. For over 20 years, as part of our Cathedral Mission & Outreach program, we have worked with schools and community partners Paris-wide, coordinating the preparation and distribution of gifts to numerous charities throughout France. This year, instead of boxes, backpacks will be filled with many goodies, toys, and practical gifts that will bring great joy to hundreds of children of all ages. Join us and be part of the "Love in a Backpack” giving joy!
