Skipping Church

 

Father Norman woke up Sunday morning and realizing it was an exceptionally

beautiful and sunny early spring day, decided he just had to play golf.

 

So he told the Associate Pastor that he was feeling sick and persuaded him to

say Mass for him that day.

 

As soon as the Associate Pastor left the room, Father Norton headed out of

town to a golf course about forty miles away. This way he knew he wouldn't

accidentally meet anyone he knew from the parish.

 

Setting up on the first tee, he was alone. After all, it was Sunday morning

and everyone else was at church!

 

At about this time Saint Peter leaned over to the Lord while looking down

from the heavens and exclaimed, Your not going to let him get away with

this, are You?â€

 

The Lord sighed, and said, No, I guess not.â€

 

Just then Father Norton hit the ball and it shot straight towards the pin,

dropping just short of it, rolled up and fell into the hole.

IT WAS 420 YARD HOLE IN ONE!!

 

St Peter was astonished. He looked at the Lord and asked, Why did

You let him do that?â€

 

The Lord smiled and replied, Who's he going to tell?â€
