My Son, the Vet.......
One Sunday, in counting the money in the weekly offering, the pastor
of
the Granville Presbyterian church found a pink envelope containing
$1,000. It happened again the next week. The following Sunday, he
watched as the offering was collected and saw a little old lady put
the
distinctive pink envelope in the plate. This went on for weeks until
the
pastor, overcome by curiosity, approached her.
"Ma'am, I couldn't help but notice that you put $1,000 a week in the
collection plate," he stated.
"Why yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money, and I give
some of it to the church."
The pastor asked, "That's wonderful, how much does he send you?"
The old lady replied, "$10,000 a week."
The pastor was amazed. "Your son is very successful! What does he do
for
a living?"
"He is a veterinarian," she answered.
"That is an honorable profession," the pastor said. "Where does he
practice?"
The little old lady said proudly, "In Nevada. He has two cat houses in
Las Vegas and one in Reno ."
