Title: Church Bulletins
Post by: Orcs on 11 June 2016, 06:27:11 PM
They're Back! Those wonderful Church Bulletins! Thank God for the church ladies with typewriters. These sentences actually appeared in church bulletins or were announced at church services:

Scouts are saving aluminium cans, bottles and other items to be recycled. Proceeds will be used to cripple children.
--------------------------
The sermon this morning: 'Jesus Walks on the Water.'The sermon tonight:'Searching for Jesus.'
--------------------------
Ladies, don't forget the rummage sale. It's a chance to get rid of those things not worth keeping around the house. Bring your husbands.

Don't let worry kill you off - let the Church help.

Miss Charlene Mason sang 'I will not pass this way again,' giving obvious pleasure to the congregation.

I have been crying tears for the last five minutes or so, much to the bemusement of my wife. After a very, very long week at work, that has been a great tonic. Thankyou one and all :)

Copy-paste to Fb so my wife can see it.
