There is the story of a pastor who got up one Sunday and announced to  his congregation: "I have good news and bad news. The good news is, we  have enough money to pay for our new building program. The bad news
 is,  it's still out there in your pockets."


While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage.  The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because  attached to the back of the carriage was a hand printed sign... "Energy efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not step in exhaust."


 A Sunday School teacher began her lesson with a question, "Boys and girls, what do we know about God?  A hand shot up in the air. "He is an artist!" said the kindergarten  boy.
 "Really? How do you! know?" the teacher asked. "You know - Our Father, who does art in Heaven... "


 A minister waited in line to have his car filled with gas just before  a long holiday weekend. The attendant worked quickly, but there were many  cars ahead of him in front of the service station. Finally, the  attendant motioned him toward a vacant pump.  "Reverend," said the young man, "sorry about the delay. It seems as if  everyone waits until the last minute to get ready for a long trip."
The  minister chuckled, "I know what you mean. It's the same in my  business."


 People want the front of the bus, the back of the church, and the  center  of attention.


 A father was approached by his small son who told him proudly, "I know  what the Bible means!"
 His father smiled and replied, "What do you mean, you 'know' what the  Bible means?"  The son replied, "I do know!"  "Okay, said his father. "So, son, what does the Bible mean?"  "That's easy, Daddy. It stands for
 'Basic Information Before Leaving Earth.'"


 Sunday after church, a Mom asked her very young daughter what the lesson  was about.  The daughter answered, "Don't be scared, you'll get your quilt."  Needless to say, the Mom was perplexed.  Later in the day, the pastor stopped by for tea and the Mom asked him  what that morning's Sunday school lesson was about.  He said "Be not afraid, thy comforter is coming."


 The minister was preoccupied with thoughts of how he was going to, ask  the congregation to come up with more money than they were expecting  for  repairs to the church building.  Therefore, he was annoyed to find that the regular organist was sick and  a substitute had been brought in at the last minute. The substitute  wanted to know what to play. "Here's a copy of the service," he said  impatiently. "But you'll have to think of something to play after I
make  the announcement about the finances."  During the service, the minister paused and said, "Brothers and
Sisters,  we are in great difficulty; the roof repairs cost twice as much as we  expected, and we need $4,000 more. Any of you who can pledge $100 or  more, please stand up."
 At that moment, the substitute organist played "The Star Spangled  Banner." And that is how the substitute became the regular organist!


  Give me a sense of humor, Lord,
 Give me the grace to see a joke,
To get some humor out of life,
 And pass it on to other folk.


 DID NOAH FISH?

A Sunday school teacher asked, "Johnny, do you think Noah
did a lot of fishing when he was on the Ark?"

"No," replied Johnny. "How could he, with just two worms."


Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being  
discharged.  However, while working as a medical student, I  
found one elderly gentleman--already dressed and sitting on  
the bed with a suitcase at his feet--who insisted he didn't  
need my help to leave the hospital.  

After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me  
wheel him to the elevator.  On the way down I asked him if  
his wife was meeting him.  

"I don't know," he said.  "She's still upstairs in the bath-  
room changing out of her hospital gown."  


f THE GOOD SAMARITAN:

A Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of
the Good Samaritan, in which a man was beaten, robbed and left for dead. She described the situation in vivid detail
so her students would catch the drama.

Then, she asked the class, "If you saw a person lying on
the roadside, all wounded and bleeding, what would you do?"

A thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence,
"I think I'd throw up."


Two Priests decided to go to Hawaii on vacation.  They were determined to make this a real vacation by not wearing anything that would identify   them as clergy.  As soon as the plane landed, they headed for a store and bought
some outrageous shorts, shirts, sandals, sunglasses, etc.
The next morning they went to the beach dressed in their
"tourist" garb.  They were sitting on beach chairs, enjoying a drink, the sunshine and the scenery when a "drop dead gorgeous" topless blonde in a thong bikini came walking straight towards them.  They could not help but stare.
As the blonde passed them she smiled and said "Good
Morning, Father.  Good Morning, Father." nodding and addressing each of them individually, then she passed on by.
They were both stunned.  How in the world did she know they were priests?  So the next day, they went back to the store and bought even more outrageous outfits.  These were so loud you could hear them before you even saw them!  Once again, in their new attire, settled on the beach in their chairs to enjoy the sunshine.
After a while, the same gorgeous topless blonde, wearing a
string, taking her sweet time, came walking toward them.  Again she nodded at each of them, said "Good morning, Father.  Good morning, Father." and started to
walk away.
One of the Priests could not stand it any longer and said.  "Just a Minute young lady."
"Yes, Father?"
We are Priests and proud of it, but I have to know, how in the world did you know we are Priests, dressed as we are?"
"Father, it's me, Sister Katherine." she replied.

Dear Concerned Student:

I am not allowed in schools.

Sincerely,  God

How did this get started?...

Let's see, I think it started when Madeline Murray O'Hare complained she didn't want any prayer in our schools.

And we said, OK...

Then, someone said you better not read the Bible in school, the Bible that says  "thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbors as yourself,"

And we said, OK...

-----------------

Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave

because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem.

And we said, an expert should know what he's talking about so we won't spank them anymore..

------------------

Then someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our children

when they misbehave.  And the school administrators said no faculty member in this school better touch a student when they misbehave because we don't want any bad publicity, and we surely don't want to be sued.

And we accepted their reasoning...

------------------

Then some wise school board member said, since boys will be boys and they're

going to do it anyway, let's give our sons all the condoms they want, so they can have all the fun they desire, and we won't have to tell their parents they got them at school.

And we said, that's another great idea...

------------------

Then some of our top elected officials said it doesn't matter what we do in private as long as we do our jobs.

And we said, it doesn't matter what anybody, including the President, does in private as long as we have jobs and the economy is good...

------------------

And someone else took that appreciation a step further and published pictures of nude children and then stepped further still by making them available on the Internet.

And we said, everyone's entitled to free speech....

------------------

And the entertainment industry said, let's make TV shows and movies that promote profanity, violence and illicit sex... And let's record music that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes...

And we said, it's just entertainment and it has no adverse effect and nobody takes it seriously anyway, so go right ahead...

------------------

Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, classmates or even themselves.

------------------

Undoubtedly, if we thought about it long and hard enough, we could figure it out. I'm sure it has a great deal to do with...

"WE REAP WHAT WE SOW,"

------------------

Pass it on if you think it has merit! If not then just discard it...but if you discard this thought process, then don't you dare sit back and complain about what bad shape this world is in...
