Notre Dame de Chicago Parish takes up collection for Paris cathedral

Notre Dame de Chicago Parish, 1334 W. Flournoy St., held a special Mass June 2, 2019 and took up a collection for Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris and the homeless in that city. The Chicago parish has roots in French culture, and the consul general of France and a delegate to Chicago of the government of Quebec spoke.
