Mobile Churches

The Russian Orthodox Church has ordered a mobile church from the Volgograd Heavy Transport Equipment Plant, Politonline.ru has noted. The new church will join rail churches and floating churches already in service. It is built on a converted KamAZ truck.

Somewhere on this forum, I recall a story of an inflatable chapel.

I have also read of a boat Church; on the Volga, if I remember correctly.

Nah, that was just a trial balloon they floated.

Just someone blowing a bit of hot air.

But reality will let all the air out.
