My friend dragged me along today to the City Centre Church, telling me it was something I had to check out. Something different, in a good way. We got there a little late (damn time change!). The crowd was full of young adults, teenagers, and young families. There was a Christian rock band playing for the first hour or so, and people were really into it, unlike the boring music at your usual mass. The singer and her singing was so impassioned. It was inspiring. At one point, I forgot I was in church and, instead, felt like I was at a concert.
Another thing that really struck a chord with me, was how socially conscious this church is. There was a presentation from Filter Pure. It’s a worthy cause: provide water-purifying filters to those without access to clean water.
The City Centre Church has been at the Paramount theatre since July 2006. Inside, it is largely unchanged from its movie going heyday. Funny, the last time I was in the Paramount theatre, it was nearly 15 years ago to see Terminator 2: Judgement Day…
