Flag on the Play
Linda loves going to church. I don't mind her leaving me either because she comes home peaceful, happy and full of love every time she is there. Last night she watched the babies. Unfortunately, none of them threw-up on her, so there were no good smells for me to discover. Maybe next time. There is a Baptist church in NJ that was concerned because there congregation was made up of 3 women for every 1 man. The Pastor decided that the way to get more men in service was to include every mans favorite sport, Football. For one special service ever year, football banners and posters are hung all over the church. The guys wear their favorite football jerseys. Between praise and worship songs, everyone shakes their pom-poms and does The Wave. After the service, there is a big tail-gate party with hot dogs, hamburgers and soda. The NFL (New Found Life) service this year attracted 2,000 people. Every year about 10 new men join the congregation after the NFL service. I wonder how many of those men are in church on Super Bowl Sunday??
