The Hip Churches

It’s the article number 20, and most of the times it would be a simple article about the latest fashion news in the industry. But for this one, I am going to talk just a little bit about an article that I saw in New York Times. Still related to style, but something interesting is happening in churches of California. As the author of the article says (Sheila Marikar), LosAngeles churches want to make church worship more hip.

If there is something to change in the US, it got to start in one of two places: New York or Los Angeles. This big towns have been in the forefront of change since the beginning of the century, so seeing one of those town having some changes regarding his churches is not quite a surprise.

I’ve left a link to the article in the first paragraph, you can read it in depth. 

My conclusion after reading it ? Catholic Church is losing ground and young people are not that interested into the church, so they are trying more ways to convince them to come back to a preach to spread the word of God. They say. And what better way to do it that to convince Hollywood stars to come and make free publicity, after all ?

I know it’s about faith I should not comment that much, but still, as we can see in US, the catholic church is less popular (especially in east and west coast, the regions with the highest number of people in the US) and tries in different ways to get people back to the church on Sundays. If it’s going to work, we will see in the future.
