The key to growing your church…
For those of you at Crossings who wonder when 4 Market Square will finally fix their sewer problems that sometimes leave us with a nice aroma on some Sundays…Be appreciative for what you have...
ELLETSVILLE, Ind. -- A Monroe County church has done without it for years, but the pastor said it's finally time to install a major upgrade -- indoor plumbing.God's Way Family Church in Elletsville has lights, air conditioning and even a sound system. But the congregation has been using outhouses since the building was built, 6 News' Ben Morriston reported.
Pastor Gilbert Thornton has launched a fundraising drive to get indoor facilities installed in an effort to draw more people on Sundays.
"It would help the growth of the church. When you say you've got outhouses, it actually turns them off," he said.
Imagine that...'it actually turns some people off to have to take a dump in a big hole in the back of the church lot'.
I wonder if they have that same picture of Jesus knocking on the door inside each outhouse that is in most church bathrooms?
