What’s church for? Worship you say? Hahahaha I laugh. That too, of course, but who is kidding who?
God knows it’s for a lot of things. He’s been watching us, you know.
A new item is texting. An old one is good old chatting. Showing off new duds is fun. Daydreaming, arguing, wishing, hoping, planning, scheming. Writing new blogs happens. I asked the bishop on Sunday to excommunicate Joyce Cusick because she said I looked like a pumpkin, but I was really kinda kidding. Really.
Folding the program is always a good activity except for airplanes which is always forbidden in our home after one of our sons threw one during Sacrament Meeting years ago. I still fold flea catchers for old times sake.
Then there are color books and crayons, of course, but graduation to the big-time -- drawing! That’s when you get good. All you need is a notebook and a pencil and within a few minutes you have a startling likeness of Uncle Ben as you see above done by Ali Aukschun!
Church grows great citizens, varied worshippers, wonderful friends, artists, authors, speakers, musicians, cooks, campers, thinkers and granddaughters.
i think we are who we are because of church. Maybe some of it was not as focused as it could have been, but probably won’t improve much in the future. But we’ll still keep showing up since we likely are better because of it anyway, and it’s not so bad anyway, is it?
