The elderly lady in front of me during prayer "cut the cheese" pretty loudly. I glanced up in shock just in time to see her fanning it about with her green babushka.

When I was a child, the church I attended always had a "musical number" in the middle of the service. Typically it would consist of someone playing a hymn on the organ or piano, or a choir singing, etc. Well, one day, for the musical number, a lady got up and it appeared she was going to sing a solo. She was accompanied by a piano and I was ready to hear her sing. However, it took me by surprise, as well as everyone else I am sure that she did not sing.....she whistled! She actually whistled a tune for the musical number.
As a young boy hearing this, it took all I could to stop from laughing. My parents gave me dirty looks as I struggled not to laugh. When I got out the door after the service, all of my friends were laughing too.

The preacher asked the pianist to sing a certain song one Sunday morning. As she was flipping through her music to find the requested song the preacher said, (Let's sing a hymn while Sister Green finds a place to pee on the piano". Should have been a piece to play. Had to dismiss church.
Ooh! I have one more. I was visiting a church and people were standing up and testifying. One sweet little old lady stood up, hanky waving in her outstretched hand and said, " Praise god. I have more soap in my hole than ever". You know, more hope in my soul. Church dismissed again.

I'm not Christian but I can share my experience as a Muslim during Friday Prayer. Well at our Mosque there isn't enough room for everyone in one room so some of us go into different rooms and get a speaker system for the sermon and prayer...and well we were praying and the speaker made a loud scrieching noise for like 3 minutes straight! And we didn't know what to do and I started to laugh (NEVER supposed to in prayer) and I acted like I was coughing. The man waited for the screaching to subside and attempted to continue with the prayer but the mic kept screaching in the middle of his sentence. After several failed attempts the speaker just crapped out and we were left...mid-prayer in silence!
Finally after standing silently...someone decided to complete the prayer (becuz someone has to lead it). It was SO funny (God forgive me)...when we left there was an old guy outside saying "no, no u have to redo the prayer becuz it wont count blah blah blah" and we all just ignored him and left...yaa it was funny :-P

Oh yes, I have seen some funny things when people are in the Spirit.... one funny thing at my church was we had this Sister in our church named, Sis. Pearlie Gates, yes that was her real name.. She had a bad habit of dozing off during the preaching. I mean her head would be laid back on the back of the pew, mouth open and everything. I attend an Apostolic Pentecostal church, so you know, our preachers don't preach quietly, to be able to sleep during preaching amazes me to begin with. But anyway, Sis Pearlie was doing her usual dozing and our Pastor was just preaching away, when Sis Pearlie started snoring loudly. The Sister beside her tried to nudge her to wake her up and finally she nudged her a little harder and at the precise moment that Pastor had stopped preaching (to catch his breath), Sis. Pearlie said to the nudger beside her, "What, what, I ain't sleeping!!" out loud, we all had to stifle our giggles. Praise God, Pastor didn't skip a beat, got our minds back on the Word and kept on a preaching. Sister Pearlie also liked to "double-dip" the food at any food functions we would have at the church. Everybody tried to get in line before her to get their food first, because she was known to "taste" her food before she put it on her plate using the utensil that was in the bowl!! She was quite a character and we miss her dearly, she died end of last year and I am sure she is giving the Angels a good laugh. Sorry so long.

I used to take care of a lovely down-syndrome fellow, 4I years old, but functioned like a child about 6 or 7. He loved to go to church with me, and watch me play the piano for the singers and choir. (Sat right next to piano) One Sunday, after services, I was practicing with choir for Evening Service. Suddenly, someone called my attention to my little friend. He was laying on the floor like a dead faint. The Pastor, and Choir members gathered around Him Praying. He never Budged.
Then I remembered how much He enjoyed singing at home, so I went to His side and said: "Did any one know how good my buddie can sing "I'LL Fly AWAY?" They all said "no" Can He Sing That Song?"............I Responded by telling my little friend to "get up from the floor, and sing for everyone>" He opened His Eyes wide, jumped up, put His Arm around the Pastor's neck, and started singing "I'll Fly Away, Fly Away, Yodel-ladie-hoo!"!!!!!! Everyone was applauding, and He was Proud.>>>>I was flabbergasted! It was so cute, but so-o-o funny in church!! I never knew whether to laugh or cry! (smile) + + +

When I was in the choir, one of the members "got into the spirit" and fell down the stairs leading past the pulpit. She was okay, but even now, I'm laughing HARD thinking about it.
That was about 20 years ago

When I was a kid we went to a country church, there was a hispanic lady there. Every time the church would start singing, she'd dance back and forth across the front of the church singing and chanting in spanish.

People snoring in church is always good for a chuckle. Very recently, we had a mother start breast feeding right on the second pew from the front. Things sure are different than from my day.
