Press Release Body =
KAYSVILLE, Utah, March 2006 - People have home offices, home gyms, and home
entertainment centers, now they can have home chapels. Church-on-demand is becoming
a new trend among congregants who want to fit religion into their fast paced
lifestyles.

Church-on-demand provides people with the church experience anytime or day of the
week without leaving the comfort of their own home. Some see this as the perfect
solution for people who work long hours and don't have the time to attend formal
worship services but still want their dose of spiritual renewal.

True believers have always adorned their homes with religious emblems. Placing
crucifixes, Stars of David, scriptural paintings, and statues in the home as a way
to express their faith. Now some followers are taking their devotions to the next
level by purchasing religious furniture to convert space in their home for use as
their very own home chapel.

Heavenly Wood (http://www.heavenlywood.com) is a company that has supplied pulpits,
hymn boards, confessionals and other furniture to churches and synagogues nationwide
since 2001. Heavenly Wood has been noticing a change in their clientele. It's not
just priests, pastors, and rabbis purchasing pews or baptismal fonts for their
churches anymore. Lay people are buying and installing prie dieus for praying,
altars for religious paraphernalia, personal kneelers, and other religious oriented
furniture for personal home use.

The home chapel is also proving useful to people who want a spiritual atmosphere
without actually affiliating with an organized religion. Some prefer to worship in
private or with a small group of associates. The home chapel becomes a practical
space where people are able to set aside the mundane parts of home-life and focus on
the divine.

Church-on-demand is further facilitated by the advent of godcasting. Godcasting is
the nickname for Internet-based religious broadcasts made available in MP3 format
for download. An increasing number of churches and other religious organizations
are producing godcasts of sermons, bible study, and worship services and posting
them on the Internet for download free of charge. Pope Benedict XVI began recording
podcasts in August 2005.

The home is no longer just a place to eat and sleep, it's transforming into a
self-contained society. People can now go to work, go to exercise, go to a movie,
and now go to church without ever stepping out the front door.
