Re: Strange Encounter

Ohh I'm in the Bible Belt and just about every denomination advertises their Wednesday services. Definitely not just a COC thing in my area, but they probably still have the monopoly on if you aren't attending that said Wednesday night services then its eternal hell fire for you.

Re: New to the group

Hi and welcome Karen2. Hopefully you will find healing here. Being raised COC was tough, but I try to remind myself it could've been worse, I could've been born into a Jehovah's Witness family or the Duggars :lol:

Both my parents came from Mothers that joined the COC as adults, neither dad ever did as far as I am aware of. My dad's dad was an alcoholic and my mom's dad died when she was really young before her mom ever converted. Things were really tough for my mom, not a pleasant childhood at all. I think th...

Re: Attendance monitors

Oh they are still going.There's one at my church this week. Pretty much pointless. Its not like they are baptizing anybody. They really should get rid of them.[/quote]
