Several years ago, a temporary pastor who has since moved on from our church concluded each service on Memorial Day weekend with the following announcement:
"As I depart through the rear of the Sanctuary, I would invite anyone who has worn the uniform or our country to follow me and form a recieving line in the Narthex. Anyone of the congregation who wishes may pass through the line and thank them for their service".
It was awesome! I think every member of the congregation participated. There were handshakes, thanks, hugs, and more than a few tears. I got a big hug and kiss from a female high school class mate who wouldn't give me the time of day when we were in school.
A little old gray haired lady cracked me up. She shook my hand and asked me what branch of service. I replied, "Marine Corps". She stepped back a couple of steps, eyed me up and down, said, "You look like a Marine", and walked off. I have no idea who she was.
It was a fantastic experience. I'll have to figure out a way to pass the word to our present pastor to do the same.
