A Bit of Humor
A priest was preaching on the evils of alcoholism. He ended by saying, "It is my fervent prayer that someday soon all alcohol in this city will be poured into the nearest river!"
The lector then announced, "The Offertory hymn will be number 312: 'Shall We Gather At The River.'"
Little Johnny was happy when his family moved into a bigger house. "Now there are separate rooms for me, my brother and my sister. But poor Mom still has to room with Dad!"
After going through the story of the Prodigal Son, a Sunday school teacher asked the kids, “At the end of the story who is it that ended up in the worst situation?” One of the kids shot up her hands and answered, “The fatted cow.” -- Lightacandle Munachi's Homepage of African Christian Inspiration

That's What we do in Catholic Education
"This is a reading of an original poem about sacramentality, which is the Catholic principle that in the visible things around us, we see the invisible God. The poem connects the principle of sacramentality to teaching and the foundation of a Catholic Philosophy of Education."

Speed Limits - A Bit of Humor
A police officer had just pulled over a car full of nuns for going too slow on a major highway. The conversation went like this:
Police officer: "Why were you driving so slowly?"
Nun driver: "I kept seeing all these signs with the number 20 on them and figured that was the speed limit."
Police officer: "No, Sister, that is the highway number."
Nun: "Oh, I'm so sorry, Officer, I didn't know that."
Then the police officer looks into the back seat and sees that the nuns there have panic-stricken faces and white knuckles from holding on to each other too tightly.
Police officer: "What's wrong with the nuns in the back seat?"
Nun: "Oh, we just got off Highway 101 a few miles ago."
Police officer: "Why were you driving so slowly?"

Daily Bible Poster - 1Corinthians 13.5-7
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. -- 1Corinthians 13.5-7

Out of Eden - A Bit of Humor
A Sunday School teacher asked her students to draw a picture of their favorite Old Testament story, and as she moved around the class, she saw there were many wonderful drawings being done. Then she came across Johnny who had drawn an old man driving what looked like a station wagon. In the back seat were two passengers, both apparently naked.
"It's a lovely picture," said the teacher, "but which story does it tell?"
Johnny seemed surprised at the question. "Doesn't it say in the Bible that God drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden?"

Freckles - A Bit of Humor
A grandmother and a little girl who was sprinkled with bright red freckles spent the day at the zoo. The children were waiting in line to get their cheeks painted by a local artist who was decorating them with tiger paws.
"You have so many freckles, there's no place to paint" a boy in the line cried.
Embarrassed, the little girl dropped her head. Her grandmother knelt down next to her. "I love your freckles," she said.
"Not me" the little girl replied.
"Well, when I was little girl I always wanted freckles. Freckles are beautiful."
The little girl looked up. "Really?"
"Of course." said the grandmother, "Why just name one thing that's prettier than freckles." The little girl peered into the old woman's smiling face. "Wrinkles" she answered softly.
