Freddie's JournalPatriotic music in church
I HATE patriotic music in church. As a female, *especially now.* Cant think of a time Ive felt less like celebrating this country and our so-called freedom.
I belong to an ELCA church and most of the congregation is pretty liberal-minded that I can tell, and we have a woman pastor. But theres a long tradition there of patriotic music on the weekend closest to the 4th. We get the weekly bulletin via email
yup. This Sunday.
I hate missing church 2 weeks in a row and I wasnt there last week. I have no obligations (bell choir, lector, etc) this week and I honestly think no one will miss me. I might even tell the choir director, whos a good friend and will probably agree with me (he doesnt have final say on the hymn selections) why Im sitting out this week
What say you, DU churchgoers? Do I have permission to play hooky on Sunday?
