Does Catholic Press Association Award Speak Volumes?

First place? For this? Another Catholic organization to add to my "Pay no attention to" list, it seems.

“God’s House Is Our House: Re-imagining the Environment for Worship” by Dr. Richard S. Vosko, a design consultant for sacred places, received a first-place award from the Catholic Press Association of the United States and Canada.

The award was in the liturgy books category and was presented on May 25, during the Catholic Media Convention in Brooklyn.

Published by The Liturgical Press, “God’s House Is Our House ” explores how the interior design of a church can shape a congregation’s understanding of itself and its worship practice.

No, no, no - this is all wrong - how about this:

...the interior design of a church can reveal a congregation’s misunderstanding of itself and its worship practice."

There, fixed it...now it's understandable.

Richard Vosko has boiled down 35 years of work as a design consultant on more than 300 churches, synagogues and other houses of worship across the country into a simple phrase: “God’s House Is Our House.” . . . He calls his design philosophy “reimagining the environment for worship.”

Exchanging the sacred for the mundane...what a guy!

...if you've got the stomach for it.
