Ooh. I see. xD xP
Matthew Minica
Lol! Yeah, I think a lot of churches have done away with the MC and everyone just knows when to come up without anyone having to tell them. :P
Eirene
Yup. But then our church has children specials where you just go up and sing without planning it. (you can plan it of course)
Matthew Minica
The specials are the main reason our church still has an MC.
Eirene
That's what I meant. xP
2 Corinthians 5:17
Haha, I would say that's how it is at our church. xP We have the time of singing, then the devotional guy comes up and does that and prayer time, then another guy has children's class, next is another song (during which the Pastor comes up), the main sermon, and then the closing thoughts and announcements by another man. So everyone knows what is going to happen when. xP
EDIT: Of course, sometimes this is changes, but most of the time, this is the schedule. =P
2 Corinthians 5:17
That sounds fun! :) How many people attend your church?
Eirene
That's a good way to do it… =)
Eirene
Um…I'm not sure exactly…there used to be more kids than adults, but I'm not so sure about that now. :( But at least some of the youth are getting up toward that age when they'll get married and start having kids. xD
2 Corinthians 5:17
Eek, that's scary. xP I mean, it's scary to know people my age are getting married. Ahh. =P
Eirene
I see Katrina!!! ;D
Matthew Minica
100 or so on a good day.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Hannah, it says you're still here, but where did you go? :P Katrina! Come on in! ;D lol
Eirene
Yeah…I know. And they're not really getting married yet, but 2 of the pastors daughters have, and his oldest son has a girlfriend…xP
2 Corinthians 5:17
Matthew, that means your family would make up over a tenth of the crowd. xD xP
Eirene
Hannah posted on the theology forums a few minutes ago…xP lol pulls Katrina in
K
Lol. Hi guys! xP
Eirene
Mmmhmm. It's kind of sad, yet kind of fun. - we're by far the biggest family in the church. :) :(
Eirene
Yay! You came in! xD xP

I'm here, but I have to go now. I kept reloading, but didn't realize that everyone had gone to a new page, which is why I haven't been posting.
Eirene
Okay bye!
Matthew Minica
Ha, isn't that annoying, Hannah! The new page numbers are so un-obvious! :\ :P
K
Okay, well hi/bye Hannah! :P
2 Corinthians 5:17
Yayy! We didn't have to turn the AC wayyy up to freeze you out of the air vent. xP Lol hi Katrina!
Brianna: We have a family in church with 12 kids, but four of their children are married and one is courting. EDIT: Oops, make that 2! lol :P The largest family at church with all the children at home is 11.
Mommy's Helper
One of one of our pastor's daughters is engaged to the other pastor's son, and the other pastor's daughter is engaged to someone who doesn't even go to our church (but sometimes he comes… he has a different church.)
2 Corinthians 5:17
Oh dear, Hannah!! xP Yeah, these new forums I'm still getting used to. One thing I don't like is how it's harder to tell on the home page if anyone has posted. Cya!
Mommy's Helper
We have two families in our church with 11 kids. The one family has all the kids at home still (although about 5 are old enough to get married) and the other has only 4 kids (soon to be 3) left in the home.
Mommy's Helper
Okay, bye for real now!
K
Lol Rachel! xP
This conversation… :P
K
Bye for real Hannah! xP
Eirene
Yeah I guess it is a kind of weird conversation. xP
K
Lol, well, I just thought it was kinda funny/random to get on here and you guys are talking about how many people in your church are old enough to get married. :P
2 Corinthians 5:17
Kayo, time to quiz my sis on her memory verses! ;) Talk to you all later, hopefully! ^_^
2 Corinthians 5:17
Katrina: I wasn't, I was only talking about the size of some families! :P I just said it's weird people my age are getting married! hehe xP
Matthew, did you lose track of the pages, too? :P
Eirene
Bye Rachel then! How many verses has Abby done so far? xD hug
K
xP Well, I wasn't exactly following your conversation very well… xP Bye Rachel!
Eirene
It was kind of weird…Courtney and I like to talk about getting married… xP xP
Matthew Minica
Aw, bye Rachel! (by the way, I may still get to your email today, but maybe not… ;) )
K
xP I didn't mean there was anything wrong with it; it was just kinda random. xP
2 Corinthians 5:17
Brianna: About 130! :) Cya! hugs
Matthew: Okay, thank you for letting me know! :)
Eirene
xD Yeah I know. xP
Yee-haw!! xD Hooray for Abby!!!
Matthew Minica
@Brianna: Speaking of that, I just realized I'm several months older now than Mark and Jaanai were when they got married! :O xP
Eirene
Yeah that's pretty weird. =O xP
Matthew Minica
It still says Rachel is on! xP
Eirene
Yeah I was just noticing that. xP
K
Ah, she's gone now. xP
Eirene
Now it doesn't. xP
K
Oh, sorry guys. I kinda got distracted. :P Are you going to be at the quiz?
Eirene
Sorry I got distracted too. :P I doubt it, 'cause we're having company. :)
Eirene
Well, it says you're gone now, so I guess that's my fault for getting distracted. :P
