time for a change

People do not like change. Once you are comfortable in your ways, in your routines, you do not want to do something different.

So what's this about? Church.
We attend a church that has two services with Sunday school between. There are roughly 25-30 people that attend each service. We just learned that the church is combining the two services.
No problem, right? Same pastor, same singing, etc...
The early service (which we attended) was a bit more casual. We didn't have a choir. The Pastor didn't wear his robes, and he lead us in the singing. Everyone would meet for coffee after service, before Sunday school.
Second service had a choir, Pastor wore his robes. Just a bit more formal. We have our spot in the pews that we sit in every week. That may be harder to obtain now, with twice as many people.

So now people grumble quietly that the people in the later service are "not the same". You would think we are merging two different churches. After a few weeks, everyone will be calmed down. Just in time for the next change.
