Church Bulletin Bloopers
Hey everyone. My uncle just sent me these "Church Bulletin Bloopers" (from the Protestant world - we never make mistakes do we?). Jesse, Graham, and I almost hurt ourselves laughing at some of them, so I thought I'd share the joy (is that alowed during Lent?). I've put them in the comments so they don't take up too much space on the main page. Enjoy!

Ø The peacemaking meeting scheduled for today has been cancelled due to a conflict.
Ø Remember in prayer the many who are sick in our community. Smile at someone who is hard to love. Say "Hell" to someone who doesn't care much about you.

thanks... for these... they made me want to laugh lots (and here i was reading them @ work on my 15-min break! :)
I don't know why, Dan, but Church bulletin bloopers make me laught more than ANYTHING else!
You missed the one that said,
"During our Easter service, Mrs Smith will lay an egg on the altar."
or
"Little Mothers Prayer Group. If you want to be a little mother, please the the pastor in is office after the service."
Still not sure they trump "You were baptised by Jordan in the john", but they're pretty good.
"so I thought I'd share the joy (is that alowed during Lent?)."

According to St. Paul in Phil. 4:4, joy is always permitted even when you spell 'allow' with only one lonely ell :) hehe.
