CHURCH TURNS EUCHARIST INTO U2 TRIBUTE
A church in Dublin, Ireland yesterday (01APR07) held a Sunday service featuring the music of legendary rockers U2.
Around 150 people attended the service at the Anglican St George and St Thomas’s Church, which was kitted out with concert-style lighting, video screens and dry ice, to sing hits like I STILL HAVEN’T FOUND WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR and ONE.
Organiser GREG FROMHOLZ says, "We’re reaching out to the youth. There’s a deep Christian message in U2’s music. They are writing songs that accentuate that and they’re very easy to sing along to." The so-called ‘U2charist’ service originated in the US two years ago, and has gained a cult following, with similar ceremonies in Australia and New Zealand.
