<DD>They're Back! Those wonderful Church Bulletins! Thank God for church
ladies with typewriters. These sentences actually appeared in church
bulletins or were announced in church services: <BR><BR>
<DD>The Fasting & Prayer Conference includes meals.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>The sermon this morning: 'Jesus Walks on the Water.' The sermon
tonight: 'Searching for Jesus.'
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>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.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>
<DD>Don't let worry kill you off - let the Church help.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Miss Charlene Mason sang 'I will not pass this way again,' giving
obvious pleasure to the congregation.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>For those of you who have children and don't know it, we have a
nursery downstairs.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Next Thursday there will be tryouts for the choir. They need all the
help they can get.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Irving Benson and Jessie Carter were married on October 24 in the
church. So ends a friendship that began in their school days.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>A bean supper will be held on Tuesday evening in the church hall.
Music will follow..
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>At the evening service tonight, the sermon topic will be 'What Is
Hell?' Come early and listen to our choir practice.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Eight new choir robes are currently needed due to the addition of
several new members and to the deterioration of some older ones.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Scouts are saving aluminum cans, bottles and other items to be
recycled. Proceeds will be used to cripple children.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Please place your donation in the envelope along with the deceased
person you want remembered..
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>The church will host an evening of fine dining, super entertainment
and gracious hostility.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Potluck supper Sunday at 5:00 PM - prayer and medication to follow.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>The ladies of the Church have cast off clothing of every kind. They
may be seen in the basement on Friday afternoon.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>This evening at 7 PM there will be a hymn singing in the park across
from the Church. Bring a blanket and come prepared to sin.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>The pastor would appreciate it if the ladies of the Congregation
would lend him their electric girdles for the pancake breakfast next
Sunday.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Low Self Esteem Support Group will meet Thursday at 7 PM . Please
use the back door.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>The eighth-graders will be presenting Shakespeare's Hamlet in the
Church basement Friday at 7 PM .. The congregation is invited to attend
this tragedy.
<DD>--------------------------
<DD>Weight Watchers will meet at 7 PM at the First Presbyterian Church.
Please use large double door at the side entrance.
<DD>--------------------------
