Here in the midwest, our church won't post a sign at the front door telling everyone to turn their cell phones off. They think it is too harsh, while i think it's a nice reminder, as so many people don't want to interrupt the service but just forget to turn the phones off. We are frequently bombarded with cell phones rining and people racing to the back of the church and out the door, embarrassed as all get-out.
Shoot, our vet does it, our insurance broker does it... What's so harsh about it? If someone will quit coming to church brcause they can't let their cell phone rinfg, well... Maybe thry need to be in another church. Just my opinion.
