Title: The Parishoner Gives Thanks....
Post by: GrayBeard on September 07, 2010, 01:35:03 pm

The pastor asked if anyone in the
congregation would
like to express praise for answered
prayers.
Suzie Smith stood and walked to the podium. 
She  said,
"I have a praise.  Two months ago,
my  husband, Tom, had a terrible bicycle
wreck and  his scrotum was completely crushed.  The
pain was excruciating and the doctors didn't
know if they could help him."

You could hear a muffled gasp from the men
in the congregation as they imagine the pain
that poor Tom must have experienced.

"Tom was unable to hold me or the children,"
she went on, "and every move caused him terrible
pain.  We prayed as the doctors performed a
delicate operation, and it turned out they were
able to piece together the crushed remnants of
Tom's scrotum, and wrap wire around it
to hold it in place."

Again,the men in the congregation cringed and
squirmed uncomfortably as they imagined the horrible
surgery performed on Tom.

"Now,"she announced in a quivering voice,
"thank the Lord, Tom is out of the hospital and the
doctors say that with time, his scrotum should
recover completely."

All the men sighed with unified relief.  The
pastor rose and tentatively asked if
anyone else had something to say.

A man stood up and walked slowly to the
podium.
He said,
"I'm Tom Smith."
The entire congregation held its breath.

 "I just want to tell my wife the word is sternum."
