A Friday Funny
The Young Priest
The elderly priest, speaking to the younger priest, said, "It was a good
idea to replace the first four rows of pews with plush bucket theater
seats. It worked like a charm. The front of the church always fills
first now."
The young priest nodded, and the old priest continued, "And you told me
a little more beat to the music would bring young people back to the
church, so I supported you when you brought in that rock 'n roll gospel
choir. We are packed to the balcony!!"
"Thank you, Father," answered the young priest. "I am pleased that you
are open to the new ideas of youth."
"However," said the elderly priest, "I'm afraid you've gone too far with
the drive-thru confessional."
"But, Father," protested the young priest, "my confessions and the
donations have nearly doubled since I began that!"
"I know, son, but that flashing neon sign, Toot 'n Tell or Go To ****,
just can't stay on the church roof!"
