Whoops!
I had a tug-of-war with the cup bearer during communion Sunday. I walked up with my bread and grabbed the cup of wine. He tugged back. Then I tugged. Then he tugged. So, I shrugged, put my hands behind my back, and put my lips to the cup -- where he began to feed me the wine. I thought this seemed a little strange, so I sort of snorted and blew wine up in my face.
When I walked away, I looked around and saw the rest of the church dip their bread in the cup.
Whoops!

That's hysterical. But it also sounds disgusting. I hate soggy bread.
At my church (and Rachel can testify if she reads this), our friend had a fight with the communion tray. The first three cups he tried to pull out all got stuck and he broke the 4th. Quite entertaining to watch.
I must have visited the same church this past Sunday. Fortunately for me, I was paying attention so I could fit in with the crowd. Still, as I dipped my bread into the cup, I wondered to myself what would happen if anyone ever tried to drink directly from it. Thanks for researching that one for me.
Thats really funny John! It's great to see another blogger making good use of his site!
man i am soooo glad no one was around when i read this post. you had me laughing uncontrollably.
I got a phone call tonight saying, "I LOVED your communion cup blog!" Actually, the person said "Chalice blog." I had to ask, "What's a chalice?" It was a long conversation.
The moral of the story is that I got credit for your funny blog. Which I find quite amusing.
first of all, john, that is hilarious. something i might even pay a small amount of money to see.
and yes, i can testify to karin's story. that was amazing. best communion cup fight i've ever seen...
