I Smell A Rat!


Doing church in a Movie Theatre has it’s own unique set of challenges and adventures….

‘Twas this past Sunday morning, as our set up team began unrolling our rugs for stage … Pastor Matt Miller noticed an “akward” smell. I too noticed and quickly began examining the area for possible causes… you never know what could have been left from the previous night of rambunctious Theatre Attendees… an old hot dog?… a half eaten nacho?… perhaps an unfinished burger?… to our shocking surprise; none of the above!

As I unrolled the final rug, the smell beckoned me to a small, dead furry creature resting peacefully in the grasp of the (from this point on known as) Sawgrass Stage Rug#3…That’s right! ‘Twas a Dead Mouse… I wish I could describe to you this awful retchedness… but my adjectives are few to do justice to it. Let’s just say, a few of us almost hurled!

Anyway, long story short, I escorted the Carcass of our once furry friend to the exit(by foot not hand) and needless to say… We may need to make room in our Budget for a New Stage Rug…

The smell is now gone…. but let this blog be a tribute to “The Sawgrass Mouse”… at least he died in a church :)
