You, too, can join the Trinity Society! It’s never been easier to leave your legacy at the American Cathedral in Paris as a gift that will continue to grow and bless others long after your earthly pilgrimage is finished! By joining the Trinity Society, through your estate plans (of any size), you will ensure that our church’s ministries continue to change lives in Paris and around the world for the next 100 years and more.

We are delighted to announce a new schedule of services in both French and English starting this week to better respond to the needs of our congregation and local community. All are welcome.

You are invited to participate in the annual Easter Flower Fund to decorate the Cathedral with flowers in memory or in honor of a loved one or several loved ones. The deadline to participate is Friday March 22nd.

Please join us online and in person for Holy Week. Everyone is welcome.

As we remember Jesus’ time in the wilderness, the Cathedral community will enter into the liturgical season of Lent (Wednesday, February 14th - Saturday March 30th). As we, both as individuals and as a community, prepare to remember Jesus’ death and resurrection, our focus this year is taken from the Collect for Ash Wednesday “Make in us a New Heart”. Let this time be for us and for all a time of prayer, renewal and growth.

Sunday February 4th, the 10km Champs Elysées race will be held (Le 10km des Champs Elysées). This race will leave from Avenue Georges V at 10:30 a.m. Access to the Cathedral via foot and public transport remains open but we would recommend leaving extra time and consulting the RATP website to plan your journey. Some metro stations or bus stops may be closed.

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.

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.
