Subject: the Veterinarian
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."
