A hilarious post from Aurora Jane Alexander.
Thank God for church ladies with typewriters. These sentences actually appeared in church bulletins or were announced in church services:
1. Bertha Belch, a missionary from Africa, will be speaking tonight at Calvary Methodist. Come hear Bertha Belch all the way from Africa.
2. Announcement in a church bulletin for a national PRAYER & FASTING Conference: “The cost for attending the Fasting & Prayer Conference includes meals.
3. The sermon this morning: “Jesus Walks on the Water.”
The sermon tonight: “Searching for Jesus.”
4. Our youth basketball team is back in action Wednesday at 8 PM in the recreation hall – Come out and watch us kill Christ the King.
I love them. You can tell exactly what was meant but they missed it by so very much. Ahhhhh language.

Ah, language, indeed. I wonder sometimes if other languages have these bloopers

I love these kinds of collections from small town/organization/church newspapers, newsletters, etc. Unintentional humor is almost always the best!! Good thing they didn’t have good editors…. 😉

I agree. And exam answers are always good for a giggle, too. (And as an ex-teacher, I’ve seen my fair share.)
