A
little boy was in a relative's wedding. As he was coming down
the aisle, he would take two steps, stop, and turn to the
crowd. While facing the crowd, he would put his hands up like
claws and roar. So it went, step, step, ROAR, step, step,
ROAR, all the way down the aisle. As you can imagine, the
crowd was near tears from laughing so hard by the time he
reached the pulpit.When asked what he was doing, the child
sniffed and said, "I was being the Ring
Bear."

One Sunday in a Midwest
City, a young child was "acting up" during the morning worship
hour. The parents did their best to maintain some sense of
order in the pew but were losing the battle. Finally, the
father picked the little fellow up and walked sternly up the
aisle on his way out. Just before reaching the safety of the
foyer, the little one called loudly to the congregation, "Pray
for me! Pray for me!"

One particular four-year

A Sunday S chool teacher
asked her little children, as they were on the way to church
service, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?" One
bright little girl replied, "Because people are
sleeping."

A little boy opened the big
and old family Bible with fascination, looking at the old
pages as he turned them. Then something fell out of the
Bible.
He picked it up and looked at it
closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that has been pressed
in between the pages. "Mama, look what I found," the boy
called out. "What have you got there, dear?" his mother asked.
With astonishment in the young boy's voice he answered, "It's
Adam's suit".

The preacher was wired for
sound with a lapel mike, and as he preached, he moved briskly
about the platform, jerking the mike cord as he went. Then he
moved to one side, getting wound up in the cord and nearly
tripping before jerking it again. After several circles and
jerks, a little girl in the third pew leaned toward her mother
and whispered, "If he gets loose, will he hurt
us?"

Six-year old Angie, and her
four-year old brother, Joel, were sitting together in church.
Joel giggled, sang and talked out loud. Finally, his big
sister had had enough. "You're not supposed to talk out loud
in church." "Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked. Angie
pointed to the back of the church and said, "See those two men
standing by the door? They're hushers."

"No, how are we alike?" "You're both old," he
replied.

or the King James Virgin?"

A

were ready to discuss the last one. The teacher asked if

stood tall, and quoted, "Thou shall not take the covers off
the neighbor's wife."
