To those of you wondering about the 8-midnight service - they do informal witnessing - gas stations, pizza shops and the like.
sounds more like they are finding ways to have fun ..
Bye Mom Bye Dad....... Won't be home till after midnight.... Yep we are all meeting up for Service at the pizza parlor then the movie theater...
DUB's are gullible thats for sure...
bless those kids getting out every friday night.. and counting time.. genuis!!

i saw them coming down the street...the excitment grew.....then 2 people walked up to my door.... .
one could hardly speak english...struggling to invite me to the memorial....i said "why should i go".
they told me ...bec jesus died for everyone just one day a year is very important.... .
give the guy the benefit of the doubt...i guess,( i don't know the man personally so how can i say for sure).
in that, he had "good intentions" when he took such a hardline against specific types of gun ownership.
this is a good example to learn from though (me too).
i can't even fathom that, how could he not have known what he was getting into.
really ...everything you see on TV .. is meant to polarize the country.. I'm sure the corporate media is well aware of what they are doing.. the American people however do not
