Does anyone know why the church in Upper Duck Pond had 24 cases of non-sacramental wine delivered?

[u/BrigadoonFound]

I just happened to be plein air painting near the church and saw 24 cases of non-sacramental wine—the expensive kind—being delivered. I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation. I'm just curious if anyone knows what it is. Halloween party perhaps?

In Odin’s eyes all wine is sacramental wine

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/elevenblade]

I believe Bacchus may dispute Odin's jurisdiction here.

[u/elevenblade → u/BrigadoonFound]

Bacchus is an imaginary figure. Odin is a real guy. I mean, he was in that movie.

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/elevenblade]

Documentary or action film?

[u/elevenblade → u/BrigadoonFound]

I’m not sure. It was the one where all those guys were helping him fight all those other guys who were aliens

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/elevenblade]

Ah. A documentary, then.

[u/Moonpaw → u/BrigadoonFound]

He may dispute the jurisdiction but almost certainly agrees with the verdict.

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/Moonpaw]

Then perhaps we can avoid litigation.

It was a donation from the synagogue on the west side.

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/xologo]

That explains where it came from. Why did they have 24 cases to spare?

[u/xologo → u/BrigadoonFound]

Leftover from the Schwartz wedding

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/xologo]

Must have been one hell of a wedding. Or very poorly attended.

[u/Minimum_Reporter_169 → u/BrigadoonFound]

No, the Schwartz’ decided to have an alcohol free wedding because he recently became sober. It wasn’t a very popular choice as you can imagine, and some guests were secretly drinking in the parking lot, but supporting his sobriety was the couples priority. Which I understand, considering the incidents that happened before that. 

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/Minimum_Reporter_169]

Ahhh... That explains it. As my ancestors used to say... Sobriety is a fine thing taken in moderation.

[u/pernicious_penguin]

It's nothing to do with that one goose. Definitely not. I am also not the goose in question. Ignore the stray feathers please.

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/pernicious_penguin]

Stray feathers? Or carefully misplaced feathers?

[u/pernicious_penguin → u/BrigadoonFound]

I know nothing. I have all my feathers. I am not a goose.

[u/agreeduponspring]

Attendance is up, and Jesus doesn't argue with souls in seats.

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/agreeduponspring]

Ecclesiastical marketing at its best.

[u/ShreksBeauty]

That church has always been up to something!

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/ShreksBeauty]

That's what I heard too.

[u/kneedAlildough2getby]

As God as my witness, those wines will be well handled. It will be with the utmost reverence, on Saturday around 9pm if ya want to come hang out

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/kneedAlildough2getby]

9 p.m.? Is there a service, or should I just bring a corkscrew?

[u/spiritualnewb → u/kneedAlildough2getby]

Holy Soirée! I’m wearing my Sunday best this Saturday.

St. Sally's Church on Eighth Ave?

[u/BrigadoonFound → u/popiclack]

How did you know?

[u/ElectricMayhem06]

I mean, it's a church, right? So what would Jesus do? He is literally known for busting out the good wine at parties.... weddings, specifically.
