Aline Compaore sings along with the French choir, Chorale Sainte Marie Reine, at the end of Mass at the Church of Notre Dame in New York, on Sunday, March 6, 2022. Today, it is largely African Catholics who worship at the church's French service. – When Landry Felix Uwamungu Ganza moved to New York from Rwanda last August, the Columbia University freshman searched for sanctuary, a sacred place to carry out his Sunday morning rituals just as he had back home.

The Mass will be completely different without them.”
