Inside of my church.

Nice.

 

[porterross]

Woo Hoo!!!! That should do it for the Giants.

 

[maylor]

Nice.

Thanks, I like yours better. These newer churches out west just don't have the character or craftsmanship and attention to detail that the older ones do.

Hey look I can attach photos now. I got over 100 posts.

Woo Hoo!

Inside of my church.

How do you do communion...is it standing?

 

[porterross]

I wondered the same thing, Lambi.

Yes, standing. When the church was built, I think the cogregation may have been all senior citizens.

If yous would want to, you could kneel on the floor. Might hurt a bit but that could be a good reminder of how much Jesus suffered for our sake!!!!!!!

Ha. But no, if I kneeled it would just draw attention to myself. Nobody kneels and nobody crosses themselves either ( I do both at home) . I'm not going to do something just because I can, if I think it is going to offend someone.

'Yous' is a very good word!
I fell in love with it after a roadtrip down south.
Ya'll should use it.

Good thing you aren't gonna do things just because. We shouldn't offend others.

"Yous" is used quite often in Northeast PA and NJ. I kinda chuckle each time I hear it here.
But I use "y'all" more than "yous guys".

The one I never heard until I moved to the Maryland/DC area was you'uns. It's an Appalachian use, and the folks I know who grew up in western Maryland, or in West Virginia, are most likely to use it.

 

[maylor]

I think the Anglosaxons may have had a word for 'you plural' in old English, but lost it sometime after the Dane-law period. So "y'all" and "yous" is all we have.

 

[DaRev]

Oh, I forgot to mention, while I was in seminary I learned that "y'all" is singular in Texas. The plural is "all y'all". I actually heard it in use whilst I was there.

Italians in the Chicagoland area also use "yous" for yous guys

 

[ctay]

I use y'all all the time. My english isn't good either, I blame it on the south

 

[LilLamb219]

As long as no one here uses double negatives... It's a huge pet peeve of mine to hear talk like that!
