DocumentaryShortNews

Alpha and Omega visits St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Oregon and St. John the Divine Anglican Church in Burnaby B.C. as they each cope with the future of their respective parishes. The rich culture that exists around traditional churches seems slated to disappear without being recognized for the value it might hold. In the social climate of North America, today, it is taboo to speak of spiritual faith, but this short film raises key issues of the subject, and will hopefully stimulate a more lively and inclusive conversation around the cultural relevance of a rapidly shrinking community.
