Our two new ministers arrived today for their first day of church. They were great!
I had the honour to read four things during the service. I LOVE reading!
Unfortunately, I misread one of the readings. I was supposed to read, "God is immortal" but of course I said, "God is immoral". HA HA oops.

LOL Sterton - humanity strikes again! Hopefully your new ministers have a great sense of humour too!

I've dropped a few bombs in church before. The trick is to spin it around into a recovery fast. I've got some of my best laughs in my recoveries.

We live in an immoral world which we like to think of as being moral. Thus to us God, who is always moral, may seem immoral.

You're reading an awful lot into a simple mistake, Jae.

Glad to see you are able to laugh/smile at yourself, Sterton :).
My guess is that the new ministers were thankful to know perfection is not expected.
I hope their ministry in your congregation and the relationships they form go well.

We need laughter when accidents happen.
Wishing your congregation much joy and support of your new ministry team

I too was a lay reader today.
I teased the minister as he had me read the beginning and end of the road to Emmaus. The middle section-the talk with Jesus was included in his sermon. He rightly said-yes the folks didn't need to here it twice back to back and so I cut your part rather than the sermon.
Love it!

Thanks everyone! :D
It reminds me the time I ordered a "Reese Penis" instead of Reese's Pieces" blizzard from a cute guy.
Also, during a religion class at Acadia, I was to talk about Mormons but my Powerpoint slide had the typo title of "Morons".
My university friend once wrote an E-mail to our English prof: "Dear Dr. Morrison" but spell check changed it to "Dear Dr. Moron" and he told the whole class why proof reading is very important before hitting "send".
I've also said inappropriate things to my elementary kids by mistake but thankfully it usually goes over their heads...but not the TA's!!!!
