Since it’s snowing like crazy today I thought I’d post our “snow day” policy for actionchurch. Basically it’s like any other day…If you can safely get to church-show up. If you can’t-no problem. No one will call you, write you, or show up at your house with a guilt inducing “we missed you”. We don’t try to “enforce” attendance at actionchurch. Our only method to “make” people show up on Sundays is to make each week such a breath-takingly awesome experience that if you miss it you will spend months in therepy or hours curled up sobbing in your shower while the water courses over your regret filled body, just like a scene from the most melodramatic movie. Other than that, no pressure.
Bonus idea-
Want to “be the church” and not just “go to church”? Why not show up early, dressed warmly and armed with a snow shovel. The club will be cleared, but it would be cool to shovel the walks and driveways of people in the Club 19 neighborhood.

I’ll admit it. I’ve watched Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer WAY TOO MANY times in the last two weeks. I can’t get the lyrics to “We’re a couple of Misfits” out of my head.
Why am I such a misfit?
I am not just a nit wit!
They can’t fire me.
I QUIT!… I just don’t fit in.
Enjoy. Now you’ve got it stuck in your head. I hope my “suffering” will be worth it when we talk about our little “church for misfit toys” in the actionchurch Finale Sunday. I think Josiah and I will have a “take” on Rudolph, and a passage of the Christmas Story, that you have probably NEVER encountered. We’ve also got the ac all stars doing some Christmas classics, an original, and a Christmas song you hoped would stay in the 80′s.
Sunday is not to be missed.

-not so much.
This made me laugh…but when I see it in life…and especially in churches it’s not that funny. I’m pretty sure the God who designed every snow flake to be different, is not that excited about “copies”. …or at least that’s what I heard some other famous pastor say on his blog
