Hi Religion Unplugged readers, Contributor Angela Youngman has written about various ways churches in the UK are adapting their spaces to be more welcoming for communities. In today’s top story, she writes about this unique trademark of this year’s British summer: cathedrals taking on a festive spirit and bringing amusement parks and other fun activities to their buildings. Some of these activities include beach areas, magicians, animatronic sea creatures, Medieval villages and more. The goal is to provide fun for communities throughout the UK and to perform a more longlasting community outreach. Read more about how these cathedrals plan to extend this fun into community growth and the inspiration behind these fun events. Why Some Cathedrals Look Like Amusement Parks This Summer How about a trip on a Ferris wheel, walk a labyrinth or rest under the stars? It’s summertime, and British cathedrals took on a holiday atmosphere — complete with some unusual activities. You might even encounter creatures from the deep oceans or step back in time. Such activities have become very much part of a British summer. by Angela Youngman If You Want Young Men to Leave Christianity, Have Them Watch ‘The Forge’
