Interesting cultural detail. Blue lighting though..kinda creepy.

Sometimes people with less are very industrious when it comes to getting around the high cost of housing spirituality; note the covers used to disguise common fold up chairs.


Wish I could figure out how to link this blog post to mine. You and I are driving on a similar route.

The blue cloth on the chairs and your placement of the aisle just left of center add drama yet keep things understated as well. Very nice. Also, I like PA's comment about the socioeconomic aspects of spirituality. Do other religions make as big (and often hypocritical) a deal of financial modesty as Christianity does (rich man, camel, eye of needle, etc.)?

Do you know why it's "shalom" right beside the announcement that it's a Christian church? I haven't attended in a long time--is that now the custom?

They've put such a lot of effort into this space.

A weird approach to scenography, this very well marked alley leading to an elusive double curtains. What lies beyond? The mystery of spirituality?

And... neon lights are cheap but provide such a distressing light!
