Published Date:

CATHOLIC nuns and priests are heading to the beach this summer in Italy with an inflatable church and beach-convent to attract sun worshippers.
The 98ft.-long inflatable church which is staffed by priests made its first appearance yesterday on the Adriatic coast and promised singing and activities until 1 a.m.
Last month's attempt to inflate the church in Sardinia was scuppered due to strong winds.
Nuns from a convent near Naples have relocated to beach cabins to join holidaymakers and have set up an altar in tents.
