St Anne’s Cathedral unveils book of sympathy in wake of Notre Dame fire
The book was opened at Belfast Cathedral yesterday and is due to be handed over to the French Consul in Belfast on Good Friday.
“We wanted to give people somewhere they can express their sense of shock and give anyone in Belfast who is from France or Paris a place to come where they can share their thoughts and prayers,” Rev Forde explained.

Meanwhile, Rev John Mann, Dean of Belfast from 2011 to 2017, said that the St Anne’s choir had been to Notre Dame just a few years ago and performed outside.
Describing the blaze as “awful” he expressed his hope the cathedral can be rebuilt.
