What is the funniest thing that has happened at the church you go to?

At the end of Mass, our priest makes any announcements that he's been asked to, then proceeds to a general blessing, where he makes the sign of the cross over everyone.

He got through the announcements and told everyone to bow their heads for a blessing. At that point, something distracted him. I'm not sure if he noticed an announcement he forgot to read, something was wrong with the prayer book.. he's too young to have had a 'senior moment'... but he paused.

Everyone in the church was waiting for about ten seconds, until he looked up and saw us anxiously awaiting the blessing. Its the first time I've ever had a blessing that began with the words "Oh, sorry... "! It was a heartwarming moment - we all had a good laugh at his slip and got the blessing anyway.

I don't know how funny this is, but a guest preacher was going to hold a sermon about the siege of Jerusalem by Sanherib the Assyrian (2 Kings: 18)

Anyway, he spoke of the threatening speech held by the commander of that army, which includes the sentence: "..My words are also intended for the people on the city wall (not just for the king and his courtiers). After all, pretty soon they'll have to drink their own urine and eat their own faeces (because of the siege)."

Only, this guy went with the more colloquial terms p*ss and sh*t.

He emphasized the words.

People sat up and noticed, I tell you.

I haven't been to mass in a long, long time, but the funniest thing I can recall was the time someone accidentally pulled the fire alarm during the sermon and woke everyone up.

Considering that was the funniest thing that ever happened there, it's no wonder I haven't been back in so long. I've had more good times in bar bathrooms waiting in line to pee.

Well, I was raised as a Jehovah's Witness. Every spring they celebrate the anniversary of the Last Supper. To commemorate it, they pass around plates of unleavened (no yeast) bread and glasses of wine. When I was little, I didn't want to pass the plate to Dad. Dad and I got in a little tug-of-war for the plate that ended with me suddenly letting go and all the unleavened bread flying off the plate and onto the floor!

This was long ago in a galaxy far, far away. My youngest was about 15 months old at the time; it was during silent prayer when he dropped his bottle on the floor and said - as clear as day - oh s***. I slid down in the seat and tried to hide. Especially since the president of the Sunday School was sitting right in front of us and immediately turned around.

One of the ladies at church put her keys in the money offering.

During the pastor's sermon, he was making a really serious point about getting people to be constant church-goers, and when he made a deliberate, positive silence to let people think and let it sink in, a baby in the balcony yelled "poo poo!"

One time they were preaching about women being submissive to their husbands and one lady said , oh yeah, I dont think so outloud and the whole church broke out laughing.

the way I see it, you're literally not born with a "you". You construct a "you". you do not comprehend what your "you" appears like suitable now, yet keep construction, and at last it really is going to change into proper. in case you want to help with church, confer along with your pastor to work out if there is everywhere that desires volunteers. you do not might want to artwork along with your age team. I artwork with preschoolers and sense very functional. it is also a sturdy thanks to start up and to achieve journey to at last change into like your teens pastor. it may not purely ensue in one day. And maximum of all, pray. God will continuously come by for you.

When the priest complained about how bad the choir sounded. No joke, he really said it! (He didn't announce it to the whole church, it was after mass when he brought it up)
