Chruch Wardens/vergers/ - would you be offended if I asked you this before a service?

[ByThePowerOfBaileys]

"Do you think it is going to be a good turn out?"

I have been pondering this - over christmas we attended a local carol service and I know the church warden very well. They had extra chairs out so I asked the above question

My sister was horrified and told me off for being rude.

I really didn't think it was rude - but would really hate to have offended the warden.

what do you think?

well I'm neither a church warden or a verger, but I am very good friends with our church warden. And I can safely say that if you asked that question at the carol service you certianly wouldn' thave offended her, she'd probably have replied "yes - as we're expecting all the parents of the children who are singing in the school choirs" (we invited the 2 attatched schools to bring hteir choir to sing an item during the servive

ahhh but you're a vicar rev - and I'm pretty sure if you said the same thing to our vicar she wouldn't be offended either........

or if it was Evensong you may get "I doubt it" HEHE

phew! Thanks
I didn't think it was an offensive question but sis was so adamant

I don't think it to be a rude question.

I don't think its rude either
