there are strange people everywhere including church. I've never yet been to a church that didn't have weird and wonderful people!

Haha.. this is great..
When I was 12 or 13 my mom let me move my bedroom into the attic, so I had one of my girlfriends helping me. Just after it was getting dark, we were finishing and as I entered the room, I SWORE I saw the ghost of an old lady in the window. I was soo scared that it was an "evil spirit" that I RAN to the church (down the block) and sought out the priest. When I found him, he said a prayer with me and I asked him if I could have some holy water to bring home to bless my room with. He brought me to the priest-house and gave me a jar. I had to go back into the church to fill it and when i got there another mass was beginning so there I was, 12 years old, filling a jar with holy water and running out! It's hysterical to me now that I think back on it. Funny thing is, I still have the jar and the rest of the holy water. Guess I was always scared to throw it out!

It was on a friday vigil and the time was 1;25 or later than. And the prayer session was on. From the pastors to the entire congregation, everyone was frevently praying and such exercises gets one's body tired easily. As time went by, most of us began to feel tired. I sat down and continued to pray but with my eyes opened. Then i looked round me and behold, half of the congregation had taken different styles of sleeping postures. What was really funny was my head pastor's position: he leaned back on his seat with all of his body and head waving back and forth and his mouth wide open! Thank God he didn't fall off his seat. I couldn't help but laugh(not loud) and that kept me awake.

We were in church one night, when a lady that every one in the town knew came in. Many years ago, her husband had ran off with another women. When he did this, she lost her mind. This lady walked everywhere, talking to her self all the time, Very loudly. She walked in to the church, came up and asked for prayer, she said that they had just removed her tongue that day.

I was raised Pentecostal, I was used to when the Pastor said "Do I get an Amen?" the congregation would say out loud "Amen." Well..........I visited a friends church a normal Baptist Church. Well....... the Pastor was preaching a pretty good sermon, not full of fire but pretty good and he said "Do I get an Amen?" I stood and shouted "Amen!" This is a very Large Church of at least 300 or more people each service. I was the only one who stood and said "Amen!" out loud! My friend tugged at my arm and motioned for me to sit back down. She whispered in my ear that at the Baptist Church you said "Amen" in a whisper and she pointed above my head, there were microphones above the congregation and one of them was over my head. It seems that this Church service was on the Radio. The Microphones were for when the Congregation sang. That Sunday there was one lone voice in agreement saying "Amen" when the Pastor asked.I returned to a Church that I was more at home in.

When I was younger, I somehow heard the word "nymphomaniac" on television. I asked my parents what that was and they wouldn't tell me. So I ended up asking most of the congregation after church one day before my parents finally pulled me aside and told me.
That was a fun day.

I was once in a church service and there was a small child at the back who was fidgeting around and half listening. The vicar said, "And what is it that Jesus has taught us?" and the child piped up,
"Where is the tortoise? I wanna see the tortoise!"
It was quite funny.

I was standing in the piew during the singing and I did a silent fart. It stunk up the whole couple of rows behind me and the people in them moved. I laughed my *** off.
Another time I took an old woman's purse who was sitting in front of me and put it next to an old man next to her. She thought he stole her purse. They were arguing over nothing. hahaha
