The
Roman Catholic Church seems to be moving in the opposite direction
to the Church of England. Here much work is being done to revamp parish
churches, and install beautiful works of art in them, so congregations
can feel pround of their sacred spaces.
The
catholic church has an average estimated weekly mass
attendance of over a million in England and Wales
The
catholic churches' official website contains information
about the Churches view on a number of contemporary
issues, including cloning, capital punishment and homosexuality.
The
latest piece of artwork to be placed in the church of
Blessed Dominic Barberi is a bronze of Dominic Barberi
greeting Cardinal Newman.
