When the whole World is taking the road to spirituality, why should Barbie stay behind. The very famous Barbie Doll, has always changed her look, appearance and beauty according to the present trend. Although a doll, Barbie was no less than a fashion dictionary.

So, after being a princess, a firefighter, a Marine and a ballerina, Barbie is now finally religious.

Rev. Barbie, is the creation of Rev. Julie Blake Fisher, an Episcopal priest in Kent, Ohio. The priest has her facebook account where she presents a Barbie dressed in the latest trends in clergy-wear.

Fisher dresses the Barbie this way for teaching aid. The doll will now be seen in spiritual outfits suitable for conducting Holy services or for visiting parishioners.

It seems as if, that after experiencing all the fun of life, Barbie has grown old and has taken solace in the path of God?
