Bulletin Announcements

Some humor for your day (especially for Cheri) taken from actual bulletin announcements...



  • Weight Watchers will meet at 7 PM at St. Martin's Church. Please use the large double doors at the side entrance.

  • The Fasting & Prayer Conference includes meals.

  • The sermon this morning: "Jesus Walks on the Water." The sermon tonight: "Searching for Jesus."

  • Our youth basketball team is back in action Wednesday at 8 PM in the recreation hall. Come out and watch us kill Christ the King.

  • Ladies, don't forget the rummage sale. It's a chance to get rid of those things not worth keeping around the house. Don't forget your husbands.

  • The peacemaking meeting scheduled for today has been canceled due to a conflict.

  • 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.

  • Barbara remains in the hospital and needs blood donors for more transfusions. She is also having trouble sleeping and requests tapes of Father Jack's sermons.

  • The Priest will preach his farewell message after which the choir will sing "Break Forth Into Joy."

  • Irving Benson and Jessie Carter were married on October 24 in the church. So ends a friendship that began in their school days.

  • At the evening service tonight, the sermon topic will be "What Is Hell?" Come early and listen to our choir practice.

  • Eight new choir roes are currently needed due to the addition of several new members and to the deterioration or some older ones.

  • Scouts are saving aluminum cans, bottles and other items to be recycled. Proceeds will be used to cripple children.

  • Please place your donation in the envelope along with the deceased person you want remembered.

  • The church will host an evening of fine dining, super entertainment and gracious hostility.

  • Potluck supper Sunday at 5:00 PM - prayer and medication to follow.

  • The ladies of the Church have cast off clothing of every kind. They may be seen in the basement on Friday afternoon.

  • 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.

  • Ladies Bible Study will be held Thursday morning at 10 AM. All ladies are invited to lunch in the Fellowship Hall after the B.S. is done.

  • The pastor would appreciate it if the ladies of the congregation would lend him their electric girdles for the pancake breakfast next Sunday.

  • Low Self Esteem Support Group will meet Thursday at 7 PM. Please use the back door.

  • 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.

  • The Priest unveiled the church's new tithing campaign slogan last Sunday: "I Upped My Pledge - Up Yours!"

Have a blessed day!
