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!"
**********************************************
And one particular four-year old prayed, "And forgive
us our trash baskets
as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."
**********************************************
A little boy was overheard praying: "Lord, if you
can't make me a better
boy, don't worry about it. I'm having a real good time
like I am."

A Sunday school 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 and
he picked it up and looked at it closely. It was an
old leaf from a tree
that had 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."

My grandson was visiting one day when he asked,
"Grandma, do you know how
you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo,
while I asked, No, how
are we alike?" You're both old," he replied.
