Just don't light any candles!
Suppose it rains? Won't it get a bit soggy and squishy?
Soggy and squishy? In my Episcopal church, that is doctrine.
What about one of these?
I posted a comment/question on the subject of a multi-denominational Cardboard Cathedral in Bosco's website (at http://www.liturgy.co.nz/blog/our-building-is-munted-%E2%80%93-the-church-is-fine/6390#comment-13032) and he pointed me to your blog on the subject.
Some of the main part of what I asked:
... what would be the factors for and against having a temporary cathedral that is cross-denominational?? I tend to think that some who had suggested this for the permanent replacement were wrong ...[with all that goes on in the several large building complexes ... but also due to some “technical” issues with church rules, which I don’t really understand].
But for the temporary cathedral, I would quite like to see it being used by several congregations that have lost their main meeting places… it would be a tricky job scheduling crowds in and out perhaps, but [what about the] “red tape”… to do with (say) Catholic rules about what can be the “seat” of the Bishop; like Church Property Trustees restrictions, etc? Is it something never attempted before? What do others think?
Thank you one and all for fascinating, (potentially) fruitful, and fund suggestions/comments.
I am sure the cardboard cathedral will be made of water proof, flame proof cardboard!
As for it being an ecumenical cathedral: I am sure if it is available for orchestras and the like it should be available for other churches to use.
Would such a cathedral be moveable? I mean does it sit upon the ground it has it foundations?
