Easter Friday

So here we don't have a "sunrise service" like most American churches, we do however, the Friday before Easter Sunday, go to a big convention center. The program starts at 9 AM and goes over lunch (not provided) to 4 PM. The convention center is a big, church built, steel building that has a boom box every ten feet down the whole 100 yards of the building. It's open air, meaning that there are garage style shutters down the sides that they raise. Now the building is metal, in the sun, on a cloudless day, with the speakes turned just down from the point where they would start tearing the place down. We must stand for an hour for the worship because the animatior alwase thinks that we "didn't sing that last song as good as we could have". The guys working the sound board are trained to put all the switches and nobs to the max, then turn them down just enough so that the mikes stop screeching.

Ye who complaineth about getting up at 5 AM to go sit in an air conditioned room with acceptable audio levels and people that actually know how to9 put a pprogram togather. I will kindly ask you to have all that complaining surgically removed.
