UPCI is getting BIGGER!
 
Every year at conference, the people are getting bigger and bigger. I just watched people this year in St Louis, women who are so obese that they can’t walk, preachers with huge stomachs, is it just me or is the UPCI as an organization getting fatter by the year?

With this kind of growth we will have to double the seating in a few years and charge $100 per person for conference fees.

I was watching a preacher who had to be over 500 lbs, so big he couldn’t stand up, I was wondering how he could justify preaching against smoking being harmful to your body, or being addicted to alcohol.

Doubling in a Decade, Global Impact!

:ursofunnyI clicked because I thought, "Huh? They are? I sure haven't heard that."

It goes back decades. My memories of GC as a child were all the huge district officials on the stage. One year our Dis. superintendent spoke about sacrifice and his vest wouldn't cover his huge stomach. It was hard to listen to.

Why don't you try to be less offensive.

I actually though someone was going to claim the UPC was growing.

This is definitely an American problem--not a UPC problem. :rolleyes2

Butter, cream, carbs, starchy, fatty foods, unhealthy oils in everything, fried foods, sugar added to just about everything...

Add that to lifestyles and careers that require little-no physical exertion, and you have a BIG problem.
