A Nashville swingers club is now being rebranded as a church in order to win city approval so it can open next to a Christian school.

The club, where men and women "engage in any sexual activity," spent 500,000 pounds on a new building in Nashville, Tennessee, the Daily Star reported.

But the move sparked fury from parents and officials at nearby Goodpasture Christian School.

Now the club has rebranded as the United Fellowship Centre. The dancefloor has become the sanctuary and two rooms labeled "dungeon" are now "choir" and "handbells." Nearly 50 private rooms remain, but most of them have been renamed as prayer areas.

In March a bill was passed banning private sex clubs within 1,000 feet of schools. But the school's president wasn't sure it would keep being a church.
