Is this a disrespectful way to clean a church building?

[QuantaFille]

So you just need to convince your mom that it's ok.

Is there a way the church would invest in a little vacuum that would be lighter than the Kirby? Something portable that doesn't weigh much? We have one here in the house that's pretty good. Might be a Shark, I can't remember for sure right now. It has a handheld piece that you can use separately, which attaches to a wand with a power bar sort of thing with 2 settings, one for floors and one for carpets. It is handy when I don't want to pull out the built-in.

I looked into those a few months ago, and after reading reviews on lots of different ones, I never was able to find one I really liked. I should probably go back and take another look.

Quanta, your church doesn't have glitter coming out of the a/c vents like the WoF churches have? You're not showering the people with "gold dust" which those churches claim is a sign of God's glory?

Trust me, this is the LAST church that would pull a stunt like that. It's part of why we joined.

I'm certain the glitter is coming from the little girls' dresses. There are some that usually show up in rather sparkly attire. I think some of it came from some recent wedding decorations, too.

I figured as much. Good girl!

Maybe even the glitter is from children's Sunday School projects as well.

I hate glitter. Mr. mossy's cousin has a habit of sending Christmas cards absolutely covered with the stuff. I usually open the envelope enough to see what's going on, and then take the whole thing outside and scrape it with an old toothbrush to get most of the glitter off. Probably not good for the environment, but I figure God's going to destroy the world with fire and that will take care of it.

Now that is evil, on numerous levels. Someone could be seriously hurt that way.

I don't recall seeing glitter in their supplies. They usually just color a picture, or make popsicle stick crosses. I'll have to find out if they do have some. If they do, I'll burn it with fire.

Did you watch the YouTube video I linked to earlier?

Yuh! Absolutely true!

A sock? Might be years before I ever touch it.

You don't have to touch glitter to be infected by it. duh.

That was going to be my other suggestion, either burn it down (which would be disrespectful) or abandon it.

Actually, burning is an acceptable way (probably the more preferable way; the other is to bury it) to dispose of something that has been consecrated, but can no longer be used for whatever reason.

Burning is the preferable way to dispose of anything that has been contaminated with glitter, consecrated or not.

I chose the third option as the closest to my opinion, but I wouldn't use a leafblower indoors. I suspect it would blow dust all over the place.

To clarify, it is only a battery powered one and very low power. I suspect it would barely function as a proper leaf blower.
