To the several older folk who have, in that peculiarly attempting-to-be-kind-yet-in-fact-totally-passive-aggressive-manner common among older Lutherans in my experience, noted that "the new pastor talks too fast":
I am doing my best to speak more slowly.
Perhaps you ought to listen quicker.
Or turn up your hearing aids.
And also, I am now informed. Please stop mentioning it to me. I'll say this slowly:
I
AM
WORKING
ON
IT.
Thank you. Carry on.

Hmm. Sounds like something a few beers could fix--both in speaking and understanding. Beer works for Lutherans, right?
grrrr....
Aha! You and my husband could definitely share a few beers over this one... He and I were remarking the other day on the habit of some choir member of coming up to him AFTER REHEARSAL IS OVER and telling him that they couldn't hear a word he said the whole time.
yep. I hear you, loud and clear. Mine are so passive agressive they don't even say it to me, just to each other. No one even tells me when the microphone wasn't turned on!
