As the first anniversary of the Notre Dame fire nears, the archbishop of Paris says he wants to send a 'message of hope' by holding a small Good Friday service amid the rubble inside the cathedral.

But the archbishop of Paris says he wants to send a strong signal of hope to the faithful by holding a small Good Friday ceremony amid the rubble inside Notre Dame, and beaming it out to the world. April 15 will mark the first anniversary of the devastating fire that ripped through Notre Dame, destroying the Gothic cathedral's medieval roof, toppling its spire and almost bringing down the main bell towers before firefighters brought it under control.
Just days after the fire last year, hundreds of Parisians were able to gather and pray on Easter Sunday at nearby Saint-Eustache church. But the threat of COVID-19 has made even an Easter procession anywhere in the city impossible this year.
