Just Wondering:
Why is “abbreviation” such a long word?
Why is it called “rush hour” when nothing moves?
Why is it called “after dark” when it’s really “after light?”
Why is it called “lipstick” if you can still move your lips?
Why is it that night falls but day breaks?
Why is it called a hamburger when it’s made out of beef?
Why is it, when a door is open it’s ajar, but when a jar is open, it’s not a door?
Why is it that when you transport something by car, it’s called a shipment,
but when you transport something by ship, it’s a cargo?

What an uplifting experience it is to worship the Lord in song. You probably feel your spirit soar as you sing the powerful hymns of the church each and every Sunday morning. Why not take the next step and join our choir. It doesn’t take much time and hardly ever hurts. Sunday mornings following the morning service for about 15 minutes…and Tuesday evenings for half an hour (6:45 – 7:15 PM).
ONLY 3 WEEKS LEFT UNTIL OUR CHRISTMAS MUSICAL: ‘NOEL.’
Glory Be Unto the Father

Glory Be Unto the Father
Walking by, a minister saw his 5-year-old son and playmates find a dead robin.
Feeling that a proper burial should be performed, the children had secured a small box and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased.
The minister's son was chosen to say the appropriate prayers and with sonorous dignity intoned his version of what he thought his father always said: "Glory be unto the Faaaather, and unto the Sonnn... and into the hole he gooooes."
