This is why we remove the stain glass from closed parishes, as Father V. explained here.
[FYI: I actually like modern architecture. Much of it, anyhow. Although this happened to us this morning – Superhusband and I sitting in adjacent rooms, e-mailing each other. Smart man. It’s not that I’m not a morning person. It’s that I want the morning all to myself, and nobody else making noise in it.]
My wife & I sit across from each other at facing desks.
Sounds like a Marriage Encounter thing. (Kidding. Kiddding!)
“a Marriage Encounter thing”
It is! We have Marriage Encounter every evening at our desks!
Who knew?
Re the stained glass I posted at the other site:
I would expect most traditional Catholic stained glass to be removed along with the statues and the crucifix.
Yes. I had never thought about it before Fr. V’s post.
Nondenominational glass can stay with the ‘church building.’
Now I’m thinking that Baptist churches aren’t consecrated, and thus aren’t deconsecrated either.
Why should I climb two flights of stairs to speak to my husband when we have perfectly good cellphones?
