Hilarious Church Bulletin Bloopers
The National Catholic Register ^ | 6/28/11 | Matthew Archbold

Posted on 06/30/2011 7:08:32 AM PDT by marshmallow

OK. There’s a lot of serious stuff going on in the Church and in the world right now and I was prepared to write on them but then I received an email from a friend of mine about Church bulletin bloopers and I laughed so hard I nearly choked to death. (I’m actually not kidding. My wife came running into the room to see if I was OK.) I have no idea of the veracity of these or their original source but they struck me as funny so I’m thinking you’ll probably get a laugh or two out of it as well.

Here they are:

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.

Some of those aren’t bloopers, they’re displays of good Christian humor.

I remember an old one: advertizing the used clothes shop: “The women of the parrish have cast off clothing of all kinds; they can be viewed in the basement after mass.”

Go to the link. That’s actually one of the “bloopers” on the list.

There will be a communion breakfast immediately after Mass.
Only those who are not coming on fast can attend.

“Pastor Sigurdson will give the sermon, ‘Do you know what Hell is?’”

“Come hear our new organist.”

From the old days-

Father Smith will have a Chat with the Children in Sunday School immediately after Mass.:

The topic will be:

``It is very importantant early in life to have good habits.``

Sister Mary Ruth will then demonstrate how easy it is to get rid of a bad habit.
