The Anglican Communion News Service has some substantial comment from Bishops Innes and Hamid, who together oversee the Diocese in Europe. (The Church of England has 60 + congregations in France alone.)

In Paris and suburbs: St George's, Paris; St Michaels, Paris; St Mark's, Versailles; St Luke's, Fontainebleau.

May God strengthen them and uphold them in this time of loss.

May I suggest also that we pray for those who have adopted the way of hate and terror that God would lead them to a pathway of peace and love.
Jesus taught that we should pray for your enemies. If every Christian on the earth prayed for this every day a miracle could happen.

The Episcopal Café seeks to be an independent voice, reporting and reflecting on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition. The Café is not a platform of advocacy, but it does aim to tell the story of the church from the perspective of Progressive Christianity. Our collective sympathy, as the Café, lies with the project of widening the circle of inclusion within the church and empowering all the baptized for the role to which they have been called as followers of Christ.

The opinions expressed at the Café are those of individual contributors, and, unless otherwise noted, should not be interpreted as official statements of a parish, diocese or other organization. The art and articles that appear here remain the property of their creators.
