NEW CHURCH: After the service a young couple talked to a church member about joining the church. He hadn't met the husband before, and he asked what church he was transferring from.After a short hesitation, he replied,"I am transferring from the Municipal Golf Course." (SOUNDS LIKE ME)
CHURCH INSTRUCTION: A Sunday school teacher asked the children just before she dismissed them to go to church, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"Annie replied, "Because people are sleeping."
Stop by Sky Watch Friday to view skies from all over the world.
I believe the world is God’s tapestry. The sky is His loom and the clouds,sun,rain,moon,and stars are some of the threads He uses to weave his tapestry of Grace. (Joe Todd 2009)
More church Funnies and More Skies

ReplyDeleteWow, a veritable feast of Spires and skies!
ReplyDeleteSuch great pictures , Thank you for your visit. have a nice day
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Church spires and beautiful skies go so nicely together.
ReplyDeleteJoe: Wonderful images of the spired sky. I loved your personal poem and the joke was neat.
ReplyDeleteI love them. My hubby & his friends worship at the church of the NFL on a regular basis! :-)
ReplyDeleteFunny and Sweet! The pictures are also very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog! Loved looking at the pictures and reading along :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic shots. What a variety.
ReplyDeleteLovely skies and steeples, and I loved the church jokes, being a churchie person myself.
ReplyDeleteTrue story: We were visiting my parents' church and saw this in the order of worship: "Silent medication." And this church had a preponderance of senior citizens.
Really dramatic lighting in these!
ReplyDeleteSpires have a way of making you look up.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post. Beautiful steeple posts. And, I really like the song playing.
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful sky photos.
ReplyDeleteI like the jokes and your style.
I love looking a steeples and spires against the skies. You got some great shots.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful pictures. I enjoyed your jokes and your poetry at the end there. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteI like these pictures. I have always liked looking at church buildings. I once considered a series of posting pictures of different churches on my blog. Even some of the newer buildings have a lot of beauty.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed all the spires with skies behind--and the jokes as well. I saw a bumper sticker not long ago that I found snarkily amusing: Christians welcome; my lions are hungry. That's probably only funny if you live in the bible belt, where every knock on the front door (friends know to come to the side door) is a solicitation to join one or another local church. I have to admit to a certain amount of sympathy toward the guy sporting the remark. But I do like church architecture (today's lecture, in fact, was on late Renaissance and Baroque basilicas), so thanks for the interesting collection.
ReplyDeleteAll the different churh spires make the sky shots interesting.

Hi Joe Lovely pictures as always.
ReplyDeleteSallie
lovely views Joe - sometimes, we humans get it right with architecture
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! The sky is always good for some wonderful photos!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post! I love the skies and steeples, and what you say about the sky being God's loom.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are having fun at the fest. I used to go to bluegrass festivals.
Thanks for visiting my SkyWatch post.
I enjoyed the music and found your analogy of the world being God's tapestry such a wonderful thought.
ReplyDeleteThanks for wishing Christine good luck. I'll be sure to tell her and congrats to your son on two successful tours to Iraq. That is a big deal!
