Greetings Saints!

This came from CHRISTIA overnight.  I know I've seen most of these 
church bulletin type bloopers.... I hope they are worth a couple of
nyuk, nyuks as always.

Not for the Comically Challenged.

A friend sent this one to me. I'm afraid this might be old stuff but
many had me laughing out loud. I decided to send it because I enjoyed it
so much despite the fact that most of you have probably seen it.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
