ICE-COLD-PEW

Every Sunday my family and I make sure that even with our busy schedule we see to it that we go to church and hear mass.

Most of the churches here in the country still don't have air-conditioning. Meaning that hearing mass in the middle of the day or early afternoon is such a hassle. Hassle in a way that you cannot concentrate listening to the priest because of the scourging heat. A little movement will let you perspire profusely!

We usually attend mass 4pm or 6pm inside a mall where there is air-conditioning to escape the heat. But yesterday my dad decided to attend the 11am mass in a church that has no air-conditioning!  Sitting inside the church, in a middle of the day, in the middle of the crowd trying to squeeze their way in to avoid the sun's rays, with an electric fan that is so high in the ceiling that you can't even feel the air in it; feels like Holy Week again but this time I'm the one who's making "penitensya"!< baka naman allergic sa misa? joke>

So with that an idea suddenly popped into my mind!

Right now even some churches with air-conditioning are still having a hard time beating the summer heat; some of us still use a hand-fan or "pamaypay". To beat that feeling of uneasiness during mass I thought of maybe it's a good idea to have a pew that can be plugged-in then after a few seconds it will be an ice-cold-pew! Okay, maybe not as ice-cold, but something cold that when you sit down you will be able to say "aaaaahhhhh, that's nice"!

Have you ever tried leaving your room with your air-condition turned on. How does it feel when you get back inside then you sit on your chair or lie down on your bed?  Feels good isn't it! It's like you don't want to get up again and just stay there! That's the feeling I want to feel during mass. And with this kind of pew, for sure everyone will be listening to whatever the priest is talking about.

Most church goers feels lazy going to mass because of the hot weather. They don't want to go out of their air-conditioned houses or rooms. Now, with this kind of pew inside churches there will be no excuses for them not to attend mass.  < 4 >
