NEW RITUALS - The church in change

 

A table for the church. 

many churches are left unused, and that is why many churches around the country, begins to get more activities, next to the ecclesiastical actions.

The parallel activities is to get people into church and use the church space and support the local community. There is therefore a need for furniture, for the new activities the church has.

It is important that the church’s spaces and facilities, can keep up with the church of the future, as they will need space-saving, flexible and mobile solutions for all their services and activities.

In this way our cultural heritage is preserved, by using existing buildings we have, instead of building new ones. It’s a shame and expensive not to use the buildings we have available.

So while preserving the ecclesiastical church activities along with the new cultural activities, such as concerts, yoga, movie nights, tuesday dining, spaghetti service, coffee days, baby rhythmics, etc.

The activities get people in the church, and in that way the church space is used.
