How many southern baptists does it take to change a light bulb?

I don't get this one. Maybe Morninggirl can explain.


109

Seven on the Lightbulb Task Force Sub-committee, who report to the twelve on the Lightbulb Task Force, appointed by the fifteen on the Trustee Board. Their recommendation is reviewed by the Finance Executive Committee of five, who place it on the agenda of the eighteen-member Finance Committee. If they approve, they bring a motion to the twenty-seven Member church Board, who appoint another twelve-member review committee. If they recommend that the Church Board proceed, a resolution is brought to the Congregational Business Meeting. They appoint another eight-member review committee. If their report to the next Congregational Business Meeting supports the changing of a lightbulb, and the Congregation votes in favor, the responsibility to carry out the lightbulb change is passed on to the Trustee Board, who in turn appoint a seven-member committee to find the best price in new lightbulbs. Their recommendation of which hardware is the best buy must then be reviewed by the twenty-three-member Ethics Committee to make certain that this hardware store has no connection to Disneyland. They report back to the Trustee Board who then commissions the Trustee in charge of the Janitor to ask him to make the change. By then the janitor discovers that one more lightbulb has burned out.

Uh sounds like a big city Southern Baptist Church to me.


Small Baptist Church


7 Deacons to decide that light bulb needs replacement. One to bring a motion to bring before the church, one to second the motion. One church member to bring motion to solicit bids, one member to second motion. One member to bring motion to appoint three member committee, one member to second and suggest pastor appoint committee. Three member committee solicits bid and brings them back to deacons. Two more to make motions on which one to accept, two more to move to bring before full church in business meeting. One member to bring motion to buy bulbs, a second and then two members to move that janitor purchase and install bulbs.

Damn, I don't know how many that is. We never have this problem at our church. Light bulbs are considered part of each members tithes.
