I have been going on and on about our priest, Fr. David. This is because he goes above and beyond, and has really helped us out recently. This is a section in the Sunday bulletin, I think they are pretty good, and I thought you might too:
We should all quit griping about our
church. If it was perfect, you and I
wouldn't belong.
I was shocked, confused, bewildered
As I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights of it's decor.
But it was the folks in Heaven
Who made me sputter and gasp--
The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
The alcoholics, the trash
Their stood the kid from the seventh grade
Who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor
Who never said anything nice.
Herb, who I always thought
was rotting away in hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
Looking incredibly well.
I nudged Jesus, "What's the deal?
I would love to hear Your take.
'And why's everyone so quiet,
So somber? Give me a clue?"
'Hush child,' said He, 'they're all in shock.
No one thought they'd be seeing you.'
Judge NOT for remember: The good Lord didn't create
anything without purpose, but I have to say mosquitoes
come close.

Oh My Gosh, I loved it! !
I'm keeping this one on 'Mom's Folder'. This is my personal folder, and in this goes pictures, emails, etc. that are important to me. I believe this made it.
Thanks for sharing. God Bless you 3.
I thought someone would enjoy it, I know I look forward to reading this section in the bulletin on Sundays. Maybe I'll start putting them up every Sun.
