So we were out and about exploring when we happened upon a church that we didn't know about. We were in a pretty rough neighborhood; however, this place was clearly abandoned - broken glass, plywood on the windows, graffiti all over the outside, etc. etc. etc.
The front door looked ajar, so I pulled over and my partner-in-crime hopped out of the car to give it a test. Wide open...
...and full of people right in the middle of a service.
I've never seen him get out of a place so fast.

Re: Just a funny story... <Reply # 1 on 8/28/2019 7:27 PM >
That is funny...I wonder if they'd gotten to that part of the Lord's prayer, "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us..." 😏 I did an explore recently where the building showed every sign of being abandoned; I parked, did an outside walk around, then noticed a couple cars parked out back. As I'm leaving, another car rolls up and a nicely dressed couple get out with food dishes and head inside (giving me a polite hello, but a confused look). No idea what was going on, but I decided it was a bit too active for me and headed out. Better luck next time, it's not as good as a nice explore, but at least you got an amusing story out of it! 😊

I probably would have just lifted up my hands to the heavens and belted our some badly out-of-tune, old-school, “Our God is an Awesome God,” lyrics. I live in the south, so this is usually a way to blend in easily. Especially with the Pentecostals. If that doesn’t work, just blather on incoherently and tell them you were filled with the Holy Spirit (speaking in tongues) - works every time.

Or just run away. That’s probably easier.
Oh no-no-no... being a good girl you wait for the service to end And to explore the hell out of it.
After all how often can you explore a location's prebando culture?
Just when I thought I was out... they pulled me back in.
