JEANNE MESERVE, CNN ANCHOR: We're going to take you now to Paris where a memorial service being held for the victims of Tuesday's plane crash. Tom Mintier joins us live -- Tom.</s>TOM MINTIER, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Jeanne, we are in the center of Paris, outside the Magdalene Catholic Church. And you can see behind me there is an overflow crowd here. This service started about 45 minutes ago. It is being officiated by the assistant bishop of Paris, also a Greek Orthodox priest, a Jewish rabbi and a German pastor. It is being done in two languages, it is being done in German and in French. At the end of the service, they will be playing the "Passion," by Johannes Sebastian Bach. The VIPs: the German foreign minister, Mr. Fischer is here; the French interior minister; transport minister; and the mayor of Paris. But also inside and outside are employees of Air France, thousands of them at the Charles de Gaulle Airport, loaded on buses came down into town. This square in the center of the city is completely shutdown. The police have blocked all access. They have roadblocks up. And people from the city have come to this church for this memorial service today. They are lining these barricades all the way around the square. They cannot hear, they cannot see, but they are here at this location, on this memorial service for the disaster victims from Concorde. The investigation, of course, is continuing. But so is the service, the memorial service, going on inside the church right now. We expect it to last for at least another 15 minutes to a half hour. The investigation, as I said, is continuing. This is the second memorial service here in France. The last one was yesterday with the president of France, Jacques Chirac being here -- Jeanne.</s>MESERVE: Tom Mintier, in Paris, thank you.
