Humor Sunday
Harold as in Hark the “Harold” Angels Sing lead us in our first hymn on Humor Sunday. This was a joyous service full of jokes, puns, cartoons, typos in the bulletin, two pews were set up for napping, the lively music, blowing bubbles as the children marched down the aisle to Pomp and Circumstance, balloons and the minister wore her robe – bathrobe that is. An uplifting service celebrating the joy of Easter – one we will all remember with a big smile.
