A parish car, perhaps?

Posted on 23 February 2009 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

Lot’s of parishes have a car, for the practical use of the staff.

This could have been parked along side the Railians at St. Mary’s in Brisbane last Sunday.

From one of my daily sites, Engrish.

    Hey, someone stole my parish van and took a picture! : )

    Thanks, that was a good laugh.

    I agree with Byzshawn, now I have one more site to be wasting time on.

    Fyi: This van is from the “Korean Apostolic Church of Christ” and states that theirs is a “church bringing forth good fruits”. The blue lettering above the license plate advertises their kindergarten program.

    I love that website (engrish.com). It’s pretty often that it cracks me up to the point of tears.

    The van says “Korean Presbyterian Church”. And the licence plate indicates it is from Seoul Korea. It is embarrassing, as a native Korean, to see it.:) There are a lot of “Konglish” (Korean-English) like that.

    I also made a spelling mistake: license :(

    Peter, licence counts too. (Doesn’t it?) It’s just british like ‘colour’ or ‘centre’. Or is that one not British either?

    That’s true. It is British English. Koreans learn American English and Japanese learn British English. In Korea you drive on the right lane like in the States, while in Japan you drive on the left as in Britain. I think that made a difference. :)

    Off the topic: Please pray for the cause for canonization of Fr. Emil Kapuan. He is an American priest who died in a prisoner camp during Korean war. His biography was translated into Korean by Cardinal Jeong and has been widely read by Korean Catholics.
