A group in Washington state have founded a new kind of religion, the Beer Church:
"Be kind and giving, love one another" and drink beer. Those are the founding principles of the Beer Church.
The idea started six years ago when Kendall Jones and some college friends from Western Washington University got together every Friday to drink. They joked it was almost like going to church.
Since then, the Beer Church has gotten a Web site and 40,000 members in 26 countries.
But this is a group that's more than just a good time. They do good works, too. I don't think I've ever heard of a more needed charity:
Last weekend, the Beer Church hosted its fifth annual Turkey Bowl in the Seattle area. The event raised $2,300 for a group that provides prom gowns for low-income high school girls.
A six pack, a prom dress--now that's a positive combination...
