When you’re very small, but too big to go to the nursery or Children’s Church in the basement, you need certain items to keep you quiet during an hour long Christian Reformed service.
If you’re a girl, you have a small purse for the storage of these items. Most likely, the purse contains necessities like tissues as well.
To keep you entertained, your Sunday purse holds tiny books of Bible stories, a baggie of Cheerios and a delicate cloth and porcelain doll named Church Baby. You’re allowed to play with her while the minister talks, but if you start clinking her feet together, it’s back into the purse she goes.
