Hilarous - Church Bulletin Mistakes

I don't know if you've seen these before. It was a first for me.
I've only posted the ones I thought were too funny not to... enjoy.

Church Bulletins: Thank God for church ladies with typewriters. These sentences actually appeared in church bulletins or were announced in church services:
------------------------------------------
The Fasting & Prayer Conference includes meals.
------------------------------------------
Our youth basketball team is back in action, Wednesday at 8PM in the recreation hall. Come out and watch us kill Christ the King.
------------------------------------------
Ladies, don't forget the rummage sale.. It's a chance to get rid of those things not worth keeping around the house. Bring your husbands.
------------------------------------------
The peacemaking meeting scheduled for today has been canceled due to a conflict.
------------------------------------------
Don't let worry kill you off - let the Church help.
------------------------------------------
Miss Charlene Mason sang, "I will not pass this way again," giving obvious pleasure to the congregation.

This is precisely the reason why we go over our announcement sheet several times before print - sometimes that is too bad.
