Shock-Headline In Washington Post Attack On Trump's Faith Not Supported By Story
Breitbart.com ^ | February 1, 2016 | John Nolte

Although Barack Obama spent 20 years in a radical, racialist church with a pastor who asks God to damn America; although Obama is a supporter of the infanticide known as partial-birth abortion, bashes Christianity, and uses ObamaCare as a means to persecute Christians through the power of the state, Obama’s longtime supporters at the Washington Post still write gushing articles about Obama’s Christianity and lash out harshly at those who don’t vouch for the president’s questionable faith.

Read the whole article. Then you realize that the media neglects (as usual), the whole truth.

That was my reaction as well. What church does the collection AFTER they do communion? My experience (not extensive, I admit, just in Presbyterian, Congregational, Lutheran and Episcopal churches) is that communion is always at the end of the service.

This is really a strange practice. I have never been in a Church that serves communion before the offering.

” Nondenominational” is key word here, I think. Meaning, they do their own thing.
I attended a nondenominational church with a friend once, and was also confused.
Trump’s mistaking Communion for collection plate was minor and understandable.
Bringing or allowing news cameras into a church service for a politician’s photo-op is far more egregious, IMO. It’s supposed to be a contrite sinner’s encounter with the Divine, not a publicity stunt.
Trump shouldn’t have done it.
The church shouldn’t have allowed it.
And of course the media were hoping for a “gotcha.” When they almost-but-didn’t-quite get one, they went ahead and made one up anyway

I go to a non-denominational Church. The offering bag is passed after morning prayers and before the Sermon. Communion is always the last thing before the benediction.

I haven’t seen any pictures. They couldn’t have turned the media away from the service. After all, Jesus said He came for the sinners. ;-)
