200 Churches in Paris and elsewhere

 Connected to the cult of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, as they used to say when I was young (though the expression has been modernized to Our Lady of Perpetual Help - see here  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help ). The Lady in question is a cool gal who always gives you a hand, and is portrayed in a religious icon image which some say was painted by Saint Luke! The church is run by redemptorists, and is also the place to go in Toronto if you want to hear mass in German! I liked the solid lectern, and the modern holy water basin. And just opposite the church, there is a bar named "Sin and Redemption", which I thought was pretty good fun. Information in English  

This time a modern neighbourhood church, near the Place de la Bastille, among the restaurants of the Rue de la Roquette. Established in order to re-evangelize the working class population of the area, the original church structure became dangerous and was replaced by the modern church. Among the photographs you will find a declaration about sexual abuse in the Church around the world. The cheap hotel opposite advertises "rooms to rent by the month or by the day". There is also a lovely baptismal font, and a very original "Virgin and Child" statue. Historical information in French here
