Every year my youth group has this huge football game between all the small groups. Last year our pastors had some weird idea to add extra dumb competitions into the mix, one being "turkey bowling". With this "turkey bowling", we bowl with turkeys and waste probably 4 or 5 of them at least.
Yesterday I just found out we're doing this same competition again, and I feel really wrong about it. I mean, I'm sure there are TONS of families in our city who can't afford thanksgiving turkeys!
I want to say something about it, but here's where I'm torn: if we DON'T do the turkey bowling, it's not like we're actually gonna give the turkeys to families who need them. We're not gonna donate money to a homeless shelter to help them out with the thanksgiving meal. OUR CHURCH BEING THAT GENEROUS?! YEAH RIGHT!!! It's really sad, but we never give to that sorta thing...
All I know is that this game really bothers me. Should I say something about it or not?
