[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It occurred to me that I think OP has the totally wrong attitude, although I don't fault her for it because holidays are stressful.  But on those days where new people are in church, you should take the opportunity to make them want to come every week, you should say hi to all the new people you see and greet them and make them feel GOOD about going to church so that they will want to come every week.  You should say hello to the families of people that you know and be kind and welcoming, not upset that they're taking up your precious space![/quote]

Yes, well, I suppose I should, but when I am packed in so tight into an overflow space I can barely move, and my knees are in the back of the person in front of me, and you barely have enough room to stand up, and your kid is whining because they are hot, and the children of the people sitting around you are whining too, and their parents are also frustrated, it's not exactly the ideal situation in which to chit chat socially.  And they bum rush you out at the end to make room for the next crushing crowd, so it's not like you're lingering after to socialize either.  Honestly, my church could be shut down for breaking fire code on days like today.  Great they're all there, I guess.....it's not like I was bitching at people or something. On a normal Sunday I am happy to welcome and get to know new people, because you actually can, unlike in today's zoo-like atmosphere.  [/quote]
