A pastor explained to his congregation that the church
was in need of some extra money, so he asked them to
consider being more than generous. He offered that whoever
gave the most would be able to pick three hymns.
After the offering plates were passed about the church,
the pastor glanced down and noticed that someone had graciously
offered a $1,000 bill. He was so excited that he immediately
shared his joy with his congregation and said he'd like
to personally thank the person who placed the money in
the plate.
A very quiet, elderly, saintly lady in the back of the
church shyly raised her hand. The pastor asked her to come
to the front, so she slowly she made her way towards him.
The pastor told her how wonderful it was that she gave
so much, and in thanks he asked her to pick out three hymns.
Her eyes brightened as she looked over the congregation.
She pointed to the three most handsome men in the church
and said, "I'll take him and him and him."
