In the bulletin of the Toledo parish we attended this weekend was a note from the pastor regarding a new church building being dedicated in the town of Findlay - the parish is called St. Michael the Archangel, and it seems to be a most impressive place, and get a load what they say about their new church.The photos don't say that much, but the schematic's nice and the description will give you an almost shocking sense of relief from church design consultants who will tell you that you know, the focus really should be the community gathered....

Yes, Virginia, it appears that it just might be possible to build Catholic churches that draw from the best of the past and are still attentive to contemporary needs and sensibilities.
