A visible church
On Sunday, December 2, 2018, the parishioners of Saint Louis Church in Drancy (diocese of Saint-Denis) gathered to celebrate the end of the works. They lasted 6 months during which the building remained open to the public. The 1930s church has benefited from a good renovation of the exterior facade as well as the replacement of the zinc work and the downspouts. A project of 436,480, entirely financed by the Chantiers du Cardinal.
[Voir] The renovation project.
« The church was beginning to fall into disrepair, with water leaksdetails Father Franz Lichtlépastor of parish. Now people have found the church they remembered 60 years ago. The parish priest – who is in charge of 5 other parishes – points out the “ nice job done and the impact on parishioners. ” There is a kind of satisfaction among residents to see that work has been done in their neighborhood. It is not easy to be valued, we are in Seine-Saint-Denis it is a district which is not very well known. » Visible from the exit of the RER station, the Saint-Louis church is one of the emblems of the economy district in Drancy (Seine-Saint-Denis). Now more visible, the church is more welcoming. What to make you want ” young people to come back hopes Father Franz Licthlé.
Happy to celebrate the end of the work, Father Lichtlé blessed the building, with an Orthodox priest at his side. ” We welcome a Romanian Orthodox community who come to this church on Sundayshe says. We will have a common celebration. Then a friendly time! The neighbors of the church were also invited, as were the inhabitants of the other parishes (Blanc-Mesnil, Le Bourget and Saint-Denis de Dugny).
