So, 850 years ago, Notre Dame Cathedral in France and Paris was built.

Like, 850 years this place stood and it's defined the skyline of Paris.

Not that I've ever been there, but I've seen pictures and it defines the skyline.

It's like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral.

It's a sign of the incredible number of saints who came from France

over the course of 2,000 years, so many French saints.

But as we know, on April 15th and 2019,

a fire broke out in Notre Dame Cathedral and the place was just,

I mean, in so many ways utterly destroyed, which is a tragedy in many ways,

but also provided an opportunity for an incredible act of faith,

an incredible act of heroism.

There's a priest.

He's chaplain to the fire brigade there in Paris and his name is a father, Jean-Marc Fontier.

When he heard that the cathedral was on fire, he arrived at the scene.

And among other things, one of the first things he did is he ran into the burning building.

He ran into the burning cathedral.

Not to save any people.

People are already escaped. People are already safe.

No one, no one perished.

But he went to the Tabernacle.

Where the Eucharist was, where the body and blood of Jesus was preserved kept safe.

And he risked his life running into burning Notre Dame Cathedral to save Jesus in the Eucharist.
