Herald Sun reported a California church celebrated its first anniversary by getting a tattoo in honor of showing love and appreciation to God.
To celebrate its first anniversary, the church challenged its flock to tattoo themselves and Pastor Bonenberger led the festivities by getting inked with the logo, which features a red heart.
He told the congregation that God "tattooed your name on his heart."
About a dozen churchgoers have so far taken up the challenge and gotten a matching tattoo.
Churches aren't the first suggesting tattoos, which is why Pastor Bonenberger see's his church different from others.
The City Church in Anaheim, southeast of Los Angeles, is known for holding its Sunday services in a punk rock nightclub and using KFC buckets as collection tins, The Orange County Registersaid.
Lead pastor, Kyle Steven Bonenberger, 26, calls it "the church for the people who don't like church."
"It's the furthest thing from what people perceive church to be," he said.
The CNN Religion Blog reports on the story as well.
