Meeting: Tuesday
July 28, at 6:30 pm, here at the church.
Pastor wishes to thank you for making his birthday a
special occasion on Wednesday. You blessed his day!
A young preacher who was new to the
community was contacted by the local funeral director
to hold a graveside service at a small country
cemetery. There was to be no funeral, just the
graveside ceremony, because the deceased had lived so
long he had no family or friends left. The young
pastor started early to the cemetery, but soon lost
his way.
After making several wrong turns, he
finally arrived a half-hour late. The hearse was
nowhere in sight, and the workman were relaxing under
a nearby tree, eating their lunch. The pastor went to
the open grave and found that the vault lid was
already in place. He took out his book and read the
service.
As he returned to his car, he
overheard one of the workman say, “Do you think
we should tell him that’s a septic tank?”
