Singles in the Church: Is There Seating For One In The Church?

From The Rev:   Some "Risso Therapy"

from Reverend Lance Robbins
Rector, The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd


Be "very quiet".

A man dies and goes to heaven. Saint Peter asks him what religion he belongs to.

The man tells him and Saint Peter says "oh, we have a lot of your kind here.

In fact, we have a special room for all of you so you can all be together!"

He leads the man down a long hallway with doors on either side.

They pass one door and they hear a bunch of yelling and hollering inside.

"Who's in that room?" the man asks. "Oh, those are the holy rollers," says Saint Peter.

"They make a lot of noise but they're pretty harmless".

They pass by another door which is nearly shaking off its hinges.

"Who's in there?" the man asks.

"That's the room for the Shakers" replies Saint Peter.

Then they approach another door. Saint Peter whispers to the man, "we must be very quiet going past this door. Don't make a sound."

They tiptoe past the door and when they get farther down the hallway the man asks Saint Peter who was in that room.

"Oh, those are the Catholics.

They think they're the only ones up here!"
