             One Sunday morning, a young child
           was “acting up” during the vicars sermon.
           Th  e parents did their best to maintain some
            sense of order in the pew but were losing
          the battle.  Finally, the father picked the little
            fellow up and walked sternly up the aisle
            on his way out.   Just before reaching the
           safety of the porchway, the little one  loudly   BOOK
              shouted, “Pray for me! Pray for me!”  NOW
                  ............................................
          Th  ere will be a meeting of the Church Board
           immediately after the service,” announced
            the vicar.  After the close of the service,
           the Church Board gathered in the room at
            the back of the vestry for the announced
           meeting. But there was a stranger in their
           midst -- a visitor who had never attended
           their church before.   “My friend,” said the
            vicar, “Didn’t you understand that this is
            a meeting of the Board?”   “Yes,” said the
           visitor, “and after today’s sermon, I suppose

           I’m just about as bored as anyone else who
                   came to this meeting.”
