Every Sunday is "thug day"

[xcyrsist]

A Michigan church held a special service Sunday based on the message, "Hate the sin but love the sinner."

New Haven’s Greater Hope Missionary Baptist Church titled the service “Thug Sunday.”

The church said the service was meant to engage those who have not traditionally been sought after.

“My whole intent with Thug Day is to make some ex-thugs,” said the church’s pastor, John Mack.

Mack admitted that some may not agree with the name of the service. But he said he’s willing to do whatever it takes to turn around the life of any man, woman, or young person in trouble.

“If we don’t try to change them, they are still going to be there … still doing the same thing,” Mack said. “So let’s go out of the box and try and reach them.”

And at least one man, who willingly refers to himself as thug, is responding.

Jeremy Folsom said he believes prayer can change his life. He said he came to the church specifically for Thug Sunday.

“It’s a wake up call for people like me,” he said. “I’m here to find my way back. I think I’m going to make changes.”

Mack said thugs, and anyone else who wants to turn their live around, are welcome every Sunday.

“The Gospel will change lives. The power is in the Gospel,” Mack said. “Just hopefully, everything will get better from here.”

Mack said the church is already planning another Thug Sunday.

Anyone who wants to be a part of the next Thug Sunday can call the church at 586-749-3813.

Expecting niggers to turn away from a life of violence and crime is like expecting a dog to turn away from a plate of ham.

Yeasss Frieends; gawd, will help save your crack smoking monkey ass from yourself. Say no to your inner ape and repent. Praise be to jebus, dats right. Come here often and put da cash you would have given to da dealer in da plate we pass around. The church needs a new escalade with spinner hub caps and a kickin sound system.

You can come here and sing songs juss like you was back in da field. We cooks up da chickuns dat you bring and feed the fambly, gibs me dat, dig down deep and gibs me dat till it hurts.

Negros are famous for thinking that they can do anything they want, then go to church and repent...which wipes them clean of any wrongdoing.

And then the cycle repeats.
