CHARISMATIC - Only 1
Hands are already in the air.

PENTECOSTAL - 10
One to change the bulb, nine to pray against the spirit of darkness.

PRESBYTERIAN - none
Light will go on and off at predestined times.

ROMAN CATHOLIC - none
Candles only.

BAPTIST - at least 15
One to change the bulb, and three committees to approve the change and decide who brings the potato salad and fried chicken.

EPISCOPALIAN - 3
One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks and one to talk about how much better the old one was.

MORMON - 5
One man to change the bulb and four wives to tell him how to do it.
(I don't know why the person who wrote this joke included mormonism... they're not christian at all, but still funny nonetheless)

UNITARIAN
We choose not to make a statement either in favour of or against the need of a light bulb. However, if in your own journey you have found that light bulbs work for you, you are invited to write a poem or compose a modern dance about your light bulb for the next Sunday service, in which we will explore a number of light bulb traditions, including incandescent, fluorescent, 3-way, long-life and tinted, all of which are equally valid paths to luminescence.

METHODIST - undetermined
Whether your light is bright, dull or completely out, you are loved. You can be a light bulb, turnip bulb, or tulip bulb. Bring a bulb of your choice to the Sunday lighting service and a covered dish to pass.
(seriously, I don't understand this, and don't think it applies at all to my church... maybe their methodism is different?)

NAZARENE - 6
One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy.

LUTHERAN - none
Lutherans don't believe in change.

AMISH
What's a light bulb?
