Among Friends

[wilma]

I remember someone at work passing these around years ago. I ran across them online the other day. They’re still funny. There are lots more out there. These are my favorites. Enjoy! 

• Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. there will be an ice cream social. All ladies giving milk will please come early.

• Wednesday, the Ladies Liturgy Society will meet. Mrs. Jones will sing "Put Me In My Little Bed" accompanied by the pastor.

• Thursday at 5:00 p.m. there will be a meeting of the Little Mothers Club. All wishing to become little mothers, please see the minister in his study.

• This being Easter Sunday, we will ask Mrs. Lewis to come forward and lay an egg on the altar.

• Next Sunday, a special collection will be taken to defray the cost of the new carpet. All those wishing to do something on the new carpet will come forward and get a piece of paper.

• The ladies of the church have cast off clothing of every kind and they may be seen in the church basement Friday.

• A bean supper will be held on Tuesday evening in the church hall. Music will follow.

• For those of you who have children and don't know it, we have a nursery downstairs.

* Remember in prayer the many who are sick of our church and the community.

Church CAN be hilarious!



Unless you go to a Church of Art and Apathy or you are an Apathetic Agnostic whose motto is "we don't know and we don't care", you might consider visiting normal church one day. Especially when being enticed by the church signs and bulletins like these:

I started out thinking These will be stupid, I won't laugh.  Then the goal was to read without laughing out loud.  I ended up like Santa "like a bowl full of jelly."  Tears running down my face.
