Even on cold Sundays a warm welcome is extended to visitors and newcomers to the American Cathedral before the 11 AM service.

Coffee Hour following the 11 AM service is held in the Parish hall or garden, and provides an opportunity for friends to meet and welcome visitors.

In addition to the Sunday fellowship we seek to introduce newcomers to other parishioners, inform them of church activities, and help with their adaptation to Paris life through many other means. Receptions for newcomers, theme dinners, parish picnics, women's guild teas and luncheons, cinema evenings, 20s and 30s group events, family ice cream socials are but a few of the fellowship activities that open the Cathedral community to the newly arrived and keep a neighborly contact amongst all in the Cathedral community.
