Maybe next they could think about reinstating:
Kneelers,
Tabernacles within the area of the alter,
The Eternal Flame,
unleavened bread,
If your church has been built in the last 10 years and still has these things, consider yourself lucky!
In montgomery country pa, St. Helena has built a new church that was consecrated on Oct. 31, 2004. I must say that when you walk into it, you feel like you are in a church that has been there for the last 50+ years. All the furnishings are from a church that closed in Philadelphia in 2003. Everything from the Reredos, the altar and stations are beautifull! They even left our ugly carpeting!
