This is a very old church with quite a history in the Orlando area. I was there for a funeral. I was ok until I had to go to the restroom. So I walk out to the hallway to look for it. I couldn't find it so I asked the usher where it was. She said it's up front. I was like, you mean in the front of the church? She said yes, behind the pulpit... I was like, "Oh well, I guess I won't be going to the bathroom until church is over. So I went back to my seat... "After sitting there for over an hour, I was about to bust!" I couldn't take it no more, I just had to get up and walk to the front of the church like I knew where I was going... when you're in a Black church, you have to hold up one finger if you're walking while the preacher is preaching. So I'm walking with my finger up, all eyes on me, the church is packed, and I really don't know where I'm going... I'm all up in the choir stand, I'm stepping over deacons, I'm just making a scene... when finally I asked one of the deacons, "Where's the bathroom?" He pointed to the door at the end of the row. I ran through the row, stepping on deacons shoes and kicking Mother's ankles all the way to the door, praying that I didn't have an accident along the way. When I got through the door, it was a long hallway going in two directions, there's no sign telling me which way the men's bathroom was, so I ran down the hall to the right. When I get to the end of the hall, I see the sign on the door, "it's the women's restroom!" By this time I know I'm not gonna make the half mile run back to the other end of the hallway, so I just bust in the women's empty bathroom, announce my presence, lock the door and handle my business as quickly as I can. Afterwards, I walk back to my seat. All eyes are on me until I sit down. After another hour goes by... wouldn't you know it, "I had to pee again!" This time, I just got up and went home.

I was a guest, it really felt like I was in a movie. Excellent in the sense of that communion with God
