Good eating at church

When I first started in the ministry I wondered why many pastors are really overweight. Here's why- church events provide ample opportunities to eat well. Where there are people, there tends to be lots of food.

Saturday was a good example. It started with a women's breakfast. Our women provide an incredible huge banquet of food, beautifully arranged. But many of them are continually dieting, and can't eat much. So others have to help. Then at noon there was a missions committee meeting with food, though much simpler. And again at night we hosted a building informational meeting with an incredible dessert spread.

Several people were at all three events, and noted that they did not have to eat at home all day. The church fed them!

Heaven will be a banquet.
