'Beer Church' Popularity Ferments

BELLEVUE, Wash. -- "Be kind and giving, love one another" and drink beer. Those are the founding principles of the Beer Church.

The idea started six years ago when Kendall Jones and some college friends from Western Washington University got together every Friday to drink. They joked it was almost like going to church.

Since then, the Beer Church has gotten a Web site and 40,000 members in 26 countries.

There's more to the church than elbow bending. Last weekend, the Beer Church hosted its fifth annual Turkey Bowl in the Seattle area. The event raised $2,300 for a group that provides prom gowns for low-income high school girls.

If you're a beer lover, you, too, can become an ordained minister in the Beer Church. All it takes is 15 bucks and a pledge to "promote the goodness of Beer."

Hey Rev, the 15 bucks is for charity! And I'll bet you get a t-shirt and a ball cap too and maybe a "Get Out of Jail Free" card to. :D

As the former owner of a mullet - I really enjoyed the haiku gallery...

I laughed, I cried, it moved me.

Now Rev, that's a pretty fine admission to make - the mullet thing I mean. LOL ;)

On the topic of the haiku, I can fully agree on what you say about that. Some of them made me laugh, and others... well Bevin (she's a co-worker) and I groaned reading some of the others. So, can we expect to see some of your poetry on that page now too? :cool:
