As the experiment continues
we invite your feedback!
As we worship together with the altar moved down to the level of the pews we invite your feedback!
While its only been a few weeks, we want to know what this feels like to you. At the Vestry meeting this week some said:
- It makes the Church feel more open and wide.
- It is a more intimate experience.
- The chapel is now a room instead of a hallway or passageway.
- Maybe we have lost something....the journey to the altar seems important to some.
- What will become of the "high altar" space? Will we ever use it? Maybe for special days like Easter or Christmas?
- It feels like we are gathered around a table instead of looking at an altar in the distance.
- The altar is now universally accessible.
- Maybe we should hang a cross above the altar?
What about you? How does it feel to you? What is missing?
Keep in mind, if we were to do this permanently we would
raise the altar up about 6 inches on a wide platform and create a communion rail all around it, as opposed to the temporary communion rails you see in the picture above.
