German church celebrates 'Star Wars' at a Sunday service

 

 A church in the German capital invited "Star Wars" fans to attend a special service Sunday themed on the sci-fi blockbuster in an attempt to attract more young people into the pews.

About 500 people heeded the call and attended the service, some carrying light saber props or wearing Darth Vader masks. It was more than twice as many as usually come to Zion Church on a Sunday.

"We were very happy to see so many people in the church today," said Protestant pastor Lucas Ludewig said after the service. "It's great that there are subjects that people are interested in. They trust us to make them part of the church service without making it too Christian or too Star Wars, but to find a good compromise."

Maybe, just maybe they should teach God's word.

Eye candy that blinds people to the "truth".

Anything goes but the truth these days...

In the words of Yoda, "Worshiping the true God they are not."

I guess they were trying to force people into the pews ..... although, I have a bad feeling about doing this

[AH173]

Something better than the 'force'.

Jehovah's Holy Spirit!☺
