True Innoocence! Cute Story

INNOCENCE IS PRICELESS

One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names and small American flags mounted on either side of it. The six-year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the little boy, and said quietly, 'Good morning Alex.'

'Good morning Pastor,' he replied, still focused on the plaque. 'Pastor, what is this?'

The pastor said, 'Well son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service.'

For a time, soberly, they just stood together, staring at the large plaque.

Finally, little Alex's voice, barely audible and trembling with fear asked, 'Which service, the 8:30 or the 10:45?'

Smile, it is a gift that gives to you and all you encounter!

Sara, priceless. As God fearin' folk I love the church jokes!

Hi Sara,

I could just picture the little boy asking that question and what he must have been thinking... Thanks for sharing and have a great week. Michael A. Caruso

Sara. Oh My. How did the Pastor not laugh when he hear Alex say that? Out of the mouth of babes, comes sweet innocense. Thanks for sharing.

Out of the mouth of babes! lol Good joke

That is cute. I bet the early service has more casualties than the later service... LOL couldn't help it!

Very funny. I got a goofy look from my wife when I laughed out loud. Thanks for sharing.

Sara: I can just imagine Scooter coming out with something like that at church. He can be so silly at times. And I am guessing it was at the early service, too. More folks were probably asleep... and never knew what hit them. Innoocence, huh ? :)

SARA - That is a really funny story. It's amazing the things that kids come up with.

I would have asked him if it was befroe or after h is sermon.

Sara- Precious!

Sara- Too cute. The minds of the young are a precious gift to all
