Keeping Portland weird: Evangelizing in strip clubs
September 24, 2014 at 3:13 pm
I was just thinking it's sad that I won't be able to witness this awesome event, but then I realized that they're going to be at a club two blocks away.

Imagine criminal trespassing.

Yeah no kidding, they'll be booted out the door immediately, and those bouncers won't play nice if they make a fuss.

Why would they bother? Half the strippers are probably from their congregations anyway.

It could be good for business. I'd go pay for drinks and have a good laugh at this. Also naked ladies.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

They're actually planning on getting up on the stage and circling the pole to pray? Yeah, they're getting thrown outta there. Especially if one of the girls is doing her thing when they decide to make their move.

Unfortunately, it's a send up.
I was wish, wish, WISHING it were real, but alas it is not.

Quote:Before entering each facility, everyone in our party will huddle-up in the parking lot and pray. To avoid detection we’ll trickle by two’s. Once everyone has arrived inside the strip bar, we’ll quickly gather around the stage and hold hands around the strip pole as the dancers perform, at which time we’ll begin to pray. You are free to pray silently, out loud or in tongues, as the Spirit leads. You are also encouraged to hand out the gospel tracts at this time. Before leaving the establishment we will conduct an alter call, inviting all the strippers, bartenders, patrons, bouncers, and owner/s to come forward and get saved by reading the Sinner’s Prayer. After we pray for and convert those who come forward we will exit the building and board our shuttles for the next strip bar.
