St. Patrick's


St. Patrick's

It's almost ironic how as society progresses in its economy and technology, we slowly begin to overshadow the importance of spirituality and spirituality is only a quick fix or an anachronism that we glance upon to be nostalgic - we release from our memories the importance of spirituality as a way of living. As this church slowly disappears into the urban concrete jungle that overwhelms its presence as a spiritual gathering place, it slowly becomes a part of the economy that fuels the society that grows around it.
