VENERATION DE LA COURONNE D"EPINES (VENERATION OF THE CROWN OF THORNES)
Friday was a leisurely day. We had a light breakfast of fruit salad and Pain de chocolat and then walked toward the metro. Just before the metro we noticed that St. Eustache was open. St. Eustache is the second largest church in Paris. Louis XIV made his first communion there. After seeing the church we took the metro to the Cite. From there it was a short walk to Notre Dame . We arrived around 12:30 and walked around the outside square. We went in to the church around 1:00 in order to get a good seat for the service at 3:00. The service started at 3:00 and lasted until around 4:30. It was a very moving and spiritual service. I actually got to see, touch, and kiss the Crown of Thornes.
