Two days after the fire of Notre-Dame Cathedral, Parisians celebrated Mbad in the church of Saint-Sulpice in tribute to the building devastated by a fire. The first lady of France, Brigitte Macron, and the mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, attended the event. "The fire had a political significance that far exceeded the religious question", said Nelson Castro, the correspondent for TN, the place of events.

While the French government began to consult specialists for the reconstruction of the cathedral, the Archbishop of Paris, Michel Aupetit, invited Parisians to a Chrism Mbad at the church of Saint-Sulpice on Wednesday. "It will be an opportunity for all of us to show our unity, our fervor and our confidence in the future.We believe that we will not only have to rebuild our cathedral, but also our Church whose face is so wounded" he wrote in a letter.

The archbishop's call was a success and a crowd gathered in front of the building, located in the heart of the capital. "There are a lot of tourists, but there are also many Parisians who took to the streets to express their feelings beyond the religious theme. "It's part of our culture", many people present say, "said Nelson, about what he could perceive people at this ceremony.

"I am Catholic and beyond my work today, I show my feelings for the cathedral." For Easter and Christmas, we always meet here in Saint-Sulpice, "said a French journalist.As many other people who could not enter the church, the man received communion through a group of priests who left the building for a few minutes.

A few hours before the celebration in Saint-Sulpice, the 95 cathedrals of France rang their bells in solidarity with Notre-Dame. The tribute was at 18:50, the exact time when the flames destroyed much of the monument.

According to Nelson, Macron's five-year promise sparked controversy in French society, with some scholars denying any possibility of rebuilding Notre Dame at that time. "Historians and architects have explained to us that regardless of the amount of funds, it is an artisbad work that It could take about 10 years"he explained.

"This is an immense challenge, a historic responsibility, the work of our generation and future generations," said Prime Minister Edouard Philippe after the cabinet meeting devoted exclusively to the reconstruction of the building.
