What is your church like, Squib?
My "fellow" church members did everything they could to **** up my sister's wedding from the organist backing out on short notice, the church's minister not showing up, the sound guy fighting with my uncle who was marrying them and, to get back, failed to tape the wedding. and everybody's getting paid and was told about this up to 2 years in advance. It's not like this was a volunteer job and most of these people are staff and know what they're doing.
I think "equal" treatment at church flows from the wallet and my family and I not rich.
Church can rot in hell.
This may sound like a weird question, but was there any prayer involved with the preparations? I don't mean like blessings out of a book or saying "grace"; I mean real communication, as in actually talking to God and asking Him for help. Did you see anyone take time to do that?
That's a crucial part of any church event, whether it's a wedding, a concert or a regular Sunday service. As Christians, we need to include Him in every aspect of our lives, and prayer really helps with that. Praying doesn't only connect you to God; it helps you to check your attitude, get your heart ready to serve others and focus on the task at hand.
So if none of the members took time to pray about the wedding...I think that would explain a lot. I've seen this kind of thing happen a few times before, and the main common denominator was that there was no prayer involved. No prayer, no attitude check, no focus, no servant heart, nothing.
That's how I see it as a Christian, anyway. Sorry if it sounds stupid to you.
There must be something fundementally wrong with this church for the staff to walk all over a family.
Like Dearheart said, I understand that not all Churches are like that. But, some people have lost sight of what the community of a Church is supposed to represent.
