I learned in church today

[Topper]

We are permanently the 9:00 a.m. ward in our building! Best news I've ever heard at church.

That is interesting. Is this a new administrative decision? How does a ward acquire a permanent time slot? Is it based upon the collective size of the tithing donations?

Btw, what do people consider the best time slot?

8:30 AM

9:00 AM

11:00 AM

1:00 PM

3:00 PM

I would argue 8:30/9:00 or 11:00. The early slots free up the remainder of the day; the nooner lets you do your morning work outs, attend church with time to spare the rest of the day. The afternoon slots can tend to consume the entire day, but you can ride your morning ride without interruption.

Believe it or not, the 1:00 ward requested to stay at 1:00.

Is this a ward with lots of teenagers who can't wake up in time for early church? It doesn't sound like one with lots of young mothers, as afternoon church can be hellacious with toddlers wanting their naps.

10:00 am is the best time for church. Not so early that the morning is madness, but early enough that you can get back and watch the morning NFL games on DVR with enough time to watch the afternoon games, too.

When we lived in Pittsburgh we shared a building with the University student ward. They wanted to always meet at 2:00 so we had perpetual 10:00 am block. That was nice.

The couch is still gone as are the soft RS chairs. Now there is a row of hard metal chairs instead.

The first year of our marriage we had 8 AM church. So awesome to get home right as the first set of NFL games kicked off.

I've never seen that time slot before.

We have a 10am slot and I dislike it. I'd rather start at 8:30 or 9.

Who gave the Church permission to ordain a time slot without clearing it with me? There are really wards with 10:00 am slots? I thought it was just DH being DH. KL has some street cred.

I was going to agree with Donut since it's still morning, but you don't have to wake up as early. Why dislike 10:00? When my wife doesn't have to play organ, we usually get there by 9:30, and that seems like a good time. I can only imagine 10:00 would be perfect.

We are the only ward in our building. It has always been at 10:00.

I need to move. Anyone know what time the wards in Hong Kong start?

7:00 AM would be better. You could watch EPL games before you left, and then watch NFL pre-games after you returned.

Who watches NFL pre-games shows?
