While serving First UMC, Hudson, FL I fell “victim” to a church bulletin blooper. The special announcement read: “Please attend worship this Sunday. We will be honoring Laura S for her long service as our volunteer choir director by presenting her with a plague.” Everybody seemed to enjoy the good nature humor based on their comments… all except Mary Joe, the church secretary, who made the mistake.
Do you know of any "church bulletin bloopers"? If so, please send them on to me. Here are some Church bulletin bloopers that I have placed in my collection:
The Fasting & Prayer Conference includes meals.
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.
Remember in prayer the many who are sick of our community. Smile at someone who is hard to love. Say 'Hell' to someone who doesn't care much about you.
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.
For those of you who have children and don't know it, we have a nursery downstairs.
Next Thursday there will be tryouts for the choir. They need all the help they can get.
Irving Benson and Jessie Carter were married on October 24 in the church. So ends a friendship that began in their school days.
Quote for today: “Happy is the person who can laugh at himself. He will never cease to be amused.” Habib Bourguiba.
