Black Folks and Easter Sunday

Krystal Minor · Sunday, March 5th 2006 at 7:05PM · 144 views
Today I went to church and it was like 100 kids. My daddy said it seems like Easter cause thats the one time that everyone goes to church and brings their kids; and they always have a speech. Why is it that black people only go to church on easter?

Girl thats what I talkin about! I do agree with u on that. Some people also go to church on Christmas and the first Sunday of the year. I agree with u on that. But someone told me that is a tradition so thats why it is like that.

Because a lot of us think that Easter is about getting new church outfits to show off. So go and by ourselves and our children new church outfits and go to church to show off the outfits like church is some kind of fashion show!!

well i guess it's become much of a tradition among all religions that have sunday service. my friend is cathlioc and she says the same thing about her church. it's funny how you mantain to find a seat on sundays, but when easter or christmas rolls around your either crushed or standing. we call em CME members (christmas, mothers day, and easter). kinda funny and sad as well. at least they choose 1 sunday out of the year to praise God in His house
