Mid-Century Modern

Most of us have walked into a church and wondered if we stumbled into a non-Catholic church somehow. Today's modern trend of minimalism appeals to no one that I have ever met. It is modernism for modernism's sake, and in the process we lose the Sacred and souls of many.

So when I saw the following picture over at The Badger Catholic, I realized that most of us would take a "modern" church from the 1950's.

Blessed Sacrament Church - Madison, WI - 1947
Yes, that was MODERN back then. Not that it is the most ornate or beautiful thing you have ever seen, but I'm sure many would opt for that over... well, whatever they have.
