The Atrium at my church is under attack right now by folks who think the space could be better used for "other purposes".

I can't think of a better purpose than to educate young minds about our faith in this gentle way. This atrium has a long and happy history.

Could you please pray that "other space" can be found and that the Atrium will be allowed to continue?

My heart is so heavy over this... it seems like so few churches have atriums, and the children who attend truly love them.

May God's will be done, Melinda.

Maybe St. Anthony could help them *find* another space for their needs? I'll ask him!
