CHURCH ETIQUETTE: In and Out – In and out? It’s a hamburger place in LA, but shouldn’t be the traffic
pattern by the back door during services. On some Sundays, it almost seems like we have a revolving door in the back
of the church – and, it is used by both children and adults. Use the restroom before coming to church. You shouldn’t
need to get a drink of water during the service (especially if you are taking Communion!) Don’t come to church to go
to the fellowship hall – come to pray.
APPLES OF GOLD: On Faith:
It is not the lazy who are most inclined to prayer; those pray most who care most, and who, having worked hard,
find it intolerable to be defeated.

SOME RULES FOR CHRISTIAN LIVING:
Be diligent in your work and shun idleness; Speak the truth at all times.
Know when to speak and when to remain silent; Do not positively affirm or deny things you know nothing about.
Respect your elders – listen when they speak; Be not proud or covetous.
Do not delay making amends to those you offend; Be kind to others and they will be kind to you.
Observe neatness and cleanliness in your habits and dress.
