Sunday, the traditional day of rest and worship in the western world, holds deep meanings for many of us even if we no longer attend a church – or even if we still do. The ancestral pull to honor this day differently is still there in modern culture even if it doesn’t have the religious overtones that it once had. In subtle ways, spirituality is still there in even the most secular and human acts of just daily chores. In this film by Dan Foldes/Pint of Soul based on a song by Alexis Harte, the theme of “My little church” reveals the sacredness of every little act done on this day. Whether digging up bramble roots, untangling extension cords or waiting on hold—it is all done to be a kinder soul and empty some space in our heads for the week to come.

    I loved it! Ooo-ooo- I’ve spent a few Sundays in my own church. It’s nice to know someone else has that habit! Thank you for sharing!
