LIGHT SIDE


For years, my 87-year-old sister was a member of women’s choirs. After a recent sing-along in her assisted living home, the lady sitting next to her said, “Are you a Lutheran?” She replied, “Yes, but why do you ask?” The lady said, “Well, you sing like a Lutheran.” Gwen Krapf Easton, Pa.


When my daughter was really small, we had a new minister speaking in church and he was talking about his time in the seminary. My daughter looked at me slightly confused and said, “I thought that was a place where they put dead people.” Mary Ellen Leveille Green Valley, Ariz.


I enjoy making seasonal visual arts for our sanctuary, but at times I have a problem with misspelling a word or omitting a letter. I was putting the finishing touches on an Easter banner when I discovered that it read: “CHRIS IS RISEN!” Roger Buhr Decorah, Iowa
