This is brilliant and heartwarming, it’s one of those things that makes you slap your head and wonder why we didn’t think of this years ago.

What a fresh idea.

Brilliant idea. Let’s hope that some of the attendees will stick around and help rejuvenate these old churches. We no longer have the rule that confines us to a particular parish.

Thanks for this thread. Pretty cool stuff. Also I haven’t been attending church for awhile but I’ve just looked up a local catholic church-think I’ll go visit. My roots are catholic but most of my life been in non-denominational churches when I have attended.
I’ve had a desire to visit again the catholic church and this thread will kick-start me to do it. Danke...

Catholic and Christian young people are finding ways to meet potential marriage partners. Skip the Internet sites that require a 50-page questionnaire and just go meet one another. Great idea. The Catholic university alumni conference has become another hopeful marriage mill; it’s in a different city every year. Young Catholic singles took over the NYC pro-life Meetup—that wasn’t so nice, but hey. Whatever.

Had to send this to Hubby. The church in Batavia in which he grew up and one exit before Buffalo on the NYS Thruway, is closed. Love this idea. Hope it spreads. Love to be part of it.

I am not at all opposed to this idea.
However, I also cannot help but wonder if some of the churches could be “decommissioned” and re-purposed.

I have long been opposed to the tax exemption of churches, especially the exemption of county property taxes. When I drive through a small town and see five to ten churches all lined up within a four or five square block area, sometimes two or more of the same domination, I cannot help but wonder if their purpose is to serve God or maybe to serve the hierarchy of that church.

Love it! What a great idea! Besides, it brings members of the body of Christ universal together to worship together and encourage one another!

Get ready for a purple rage alert and thread crapping.
