They dress ‘properly’ and are quite knowledgeable about the Bible. But don’t dare peep into their inbox, for thou shalt be scandalised for life!
7. Brother’s and keepers and trumpet blowers
These are the early-risers and sticklers for time. They will send you reminder messages a day before the meeting and another on the day of meeting.
The message is always detailed with venue, time and agenda. They will be the first to arrive at the venue. You will find them already singing as they wait for others.
8. The joy bringers
They might not be as holy as the ones after God’s own heart, but they will use what they have, even if it’s their voice, to shower the group with love.
They tend to be songbirds and have such great advice and encouragement to make you forget your pain.
9. The lost sheep
These are the clueless ones and have no idea what’s going on most of the time. They will be quiet during topical discussions until something out of the ordinary emerges.
They are very good at talking about ‘non-issues’. Like the seeds that fell on rocky soil, they soon dry up and are choked to silence when discussing the virtues of Christianity and fruits of salvation. But they get very active when it comes to discussing Brother Jero’s new expensive car.
10. The King Solomon
He is the wise man in the group, often elderly with a ready ear and shoulder to cry on. He is the one everyone in the group goes to for marital, investment and parenting advice.
He is the group’s counsellor, psychologist, analyst and fortune teller. He means well and is held in high esteem by the group and the church membership.
