13.) Convocations
Picture 14 of 15
What it is: hundreds of Adventists coming together to celebrate their region and/or ethnicity. Usually characterized by shrill cries of delight at seeing someone you haven't seen IN AGES and teenagers roaming outside during the sermon. (Photo via https://www.biophysics.org)

Convocation–what sermon?
Gym sleepovers–what could possibly go wrong? Their teachers are sleeping a few feet away. Hey it’s a chance for the teachers to stay up all night, play Rook and gossip about board members.
Pathfinder camporees–ditto for adult counsellors. Stay up all night, play Rook, and gossip about church members!!
And sadness here–I just found out that in California, potluck a are being outlawed by the board of health. One less thing to complain about—oh yeah, gossip about board members!
Wow, now Adventists can walk on the wild side now . . . and have potlucks even if they’re illegal . . . and just DARE the Potluck Police to throw them in jail!
Don’t call it a “potluck” anymore . . . call it “Feeding the Hungry” . . . read Mathew 25 to the cop . . . and explain that you have Religous Freedom to follow your religious beliefs in spite of the law, you can cite Hobby Lobby.
There’s a big typo in slide 8 (“that delicious hot chocolate at the end”). Don’t you mean “delicious hot carob“?
I know I eat chocolate and drink hot chocolate I have had carob too but like chocolate
