And so I was doing so much work and that I didn't actually go into the worship space until about two minutes before the service was supposed to start.

And I'm walking up the stairs of this hundred year old church building and I'm so excited to see everyone and I see the sun coming through the stained glass and bouncing off the 26 people who came.

26.

20 fucking sakes.

And I didn't know what to do, so I quickly pivoted, turned around, went downstairs like I'd forgotten something.

But if I'd forgotten anything, it was definitely my goodwill towards humanity.

And I went into the women's room, and I literally knelt on the peeling linoleum and was like, dear God, I hate all those people who didn't show up so much.

that I'm having a hard time appreciating the people who did show up.

And as you know, I have to start like a worship service in two minutes.

So if you could like, you know, remove this resentment, like rip out my stony little heart and replace it with a human fleshy beating one again, I'd really appreciate that.

Amen.

So my desperate prayer helped enough for me to get going, get the service going.

And then the prayers of the people were beautiful, and that helped too, because JP prayed.

He was glad he got a job after six months of unemployment.

And Clarice was like, I've been off heroin for a year.

And then someone else was praying for their aunt who had breast cancer.

Just the realness of that helped as well.

And so about 20 people stayed.

And there was a group of my parishioners who were like grilling up all these burgers that we had for like 80 people.

And they're like, we should just take them down to Triangle Park to like feed some hungry people.
