This was posted here a while back by MSeaman, I always get a good laugh out of these so I thought I would post them again here, enjoy. :-P

Return of the Church Bulletins. . .

They're back! Church Bulletins: Thank God for church ladies with typewriters. These sentences actually appeared in church bulletins or were announced in church services:

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 8:00 p.m. 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 peace-making 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 try outs 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 Pastor Jack's sermons.

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

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

A Bean Supper will be held on Tuesday evening in the church hall. Music will follow.

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

Eight new choir robes are currently needed due to the addition of several new members and to the deterioration of 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 p.m. - 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 7:00 p.m., there will be a hymn-singing in the park across from the Church. Bring a blanket and come prepared to sin.

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 7:00 p.m. Please use the back door.

The eighth-graders will be presenting Shakespeare's Hamlet in the Church Basement on Friday at 7:00 p.m. The congregation is invited to attend this tragedy.

That was quite possibly the most painful thing I've ever read. I laughed so hard it hurt and I almost fell off of my chair about four times! Also there should be a disclaimer to this: don't drink anything while reading these. ;-)

Thank you for reposting these. I needed a good laugh.

We were in a church where the bulletin contained this typo: "Special sining tonight!" This made everyone smile and the preacher noted this in his announcements...fortunately, everyone had a good sense of humor!

some of these were really funny to laugh at, but there are few that did not set right with my heart, and brought wrong images and thoughts that i had to cast off quickly. i don't think i need to point them out. its obvious and should be taken off.

Have only just discovered this thread, and have a few to add if I may (going to anyway :-P )

Two answers in a Religious Education test:
"Pontius was a pirate"
"Zaccheus was a taxi collector"

There's also the (apocryphal?) prayer: "Lord, please bless Mrs Jones. She's had all her teeth taken out and a new fireplace put in..."

And my mother always thought of pickles when a lady habitually thanked God for His "keeping power"

Someone in our church used to complain because of all the "loose livers" there were these days. While appreciating and agreeing with her concern I couldn't help thinking "That sounds painful"

And the often heard: "Where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there am I in the mist"
- A bit of a foggy arrangement?

I was on the phone to a friend once when she suddenly said, "John 8:1". Which confused be because her son is called Jon, and seemed to have nothing to do with the conversation. I said, "One what? ...What did Jon eat? ...You said, 'John ate one', so what did he eat?"

It took us quite a while to untangle that one!


I'm so glad the Lord gave us humour - what a blessing. Though, like seasoning on food, to be used sparingly and with wisdom!

Just wanted to bump this thread up to the front again for anyone who needs a good laugh.

I like to revist this thread every so often.
