The Importance of Punctuation
Headline of an announcement for a ladies' lunchoen in the bulletin of the church we went to on Sunday:
Meet our Pastor's Wives!
That would be pastor-apostrophe-"s," singular, as in one pastor, and "wives," plural.
Do you think they meant to write "s"-apostrophe?
And on a scale of one to ten, how big a nerd am I to think that this is absolutely hilarious?? :)

did this leave you wondering what kind of a place have I returned here...in any case, either this punctuation issue is a reason to leave (what do spelling issues tell us about a church anyway...and even more thorny: what about the pastors' husbands??) or a reason to dive into administrative ministry.
Did you travel to Southern Utah to visit a church? This sounds very un-CRC ish and very, well, utah-ish!
BTW, how is Sunday the 23rd--Eric had a sudden change of plans. I'd call, but I have no idea where I wrote your number!

hahaha, thanks for the laugh :)
That is great! I think I would've busted p laughing right then and there.
You gotta love the self correcting spell ceck thingy.

Punctuation and grammar issues aside, yes it's hilarious, and it also makes me happy to be in a denom where the ladies society doesn't do this kind of thing. Aagh! Sounds like an ordeal for any wife...I think I'd actually be glad to go with 3 or 4 wives as buffers!!!
Your mother understands completely:) (Dad said you sound like me!)
