Writer wanted for blog about churches | 10+ cents per word
Added 2020-07-28 12:37:08 +0000 UTCCOMPANY/PUBLICATION: THE SKEPTICAL CATHOLIC
I have a blog I'm building here about my partner and I traveling to different Catholic churches in the Pacific Northwest, taking photos, attending services, and writing about our experiences.
You need not be versed in Catholicism, but the job requires a minimal amount of googling the history of the different churches, and then taking my notes and turning them into a blog post for me.
It seems like the standard rate is 10 cents a word but we can talk.
Here's an example of the format I'm looking for:
*Christ the King, Milwaukie Oregon January 2020 Built in 1979 in Milwaukee after St. John the Baptist church down the road became too small to support the growing number of Catholic families in attendance and established a ‘Christ the King Mission’ at what is now the location of the current church. Built mostly of wood and shingles It’s definitely far from a gothic masterpiece like Notre-Dame or St. Peter’s Basillica, instead is more of a practically built, open circular design with a wooded spire and exposed support beams. Exactly what you would imagine if you combined the modern mid-century (read: post Vatican II) style Catholic church with the Pacific Northwest, or as I affectionately call it “a Catholic Yurt”.
We oddly noted there is no crucifix above the altar either. Instead there’s a cross made out of lights embedded in the wood. I couldn’t help but notice it bared a striking resemblance to a Lite Brite I used to play with as a child. A Catholic lite brite crucifix.
The atmosphere was formal, yet friendly. Powerful homily. No church organ, but a beautiful choir and piano. If you measure a church community by how many people stay for coffee and donuts afterwards you would say this is a strong community of faithful as most members stayed.*
