A visitor who use to belong to our parish came to our Easter service.
Her comment regarding how we decorated the Church was,
"He changed an airplane hanger into a cathedral."

Good show Catholics ~ BTW, your typical Methodist church is designed pretty much the same way but they split the space up too much so you can't have these large meetings.
