Doncaster prison - is this Church to the unchurched.

What an experience I had today. Went in, to find a load of people just standig around. i looked around, lost and someone pointed out for me to fill out a form. I did this, waited in a que to hand it in. Got to the window to be told, " you need to put in through that door" How was i to know!!!
i looked for signs and there was nothing. We waited 2 hours and when we thought we were going in, we looked at the lockers and it said. NO MOBILES< NO MONEY NO KEYS NO NOTHING can go in. the lockers needed a padlock of which i did not have one.
Finally we could not wait any longer andwhen i spoke to the lady , she said " you know should not come in on wednesdays its our busiest day. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I look at our church service the next sunday with the same eyes:
walk in - nice welcome asked to go in and sit down.
I wonder how long the service is : no idea no sign or anything.
what does gospel reading mean!
How do these song go! not heard this one!
Good preach - learnt something.
Someone has shook my hand - WHY!
Have bread and wine - Can I?
finished
Coffee time.

Lots of Questions!!
What is church for!
Traditional or modern does it make a differnce!
