Children in Church


A little boy was attending his first wedding. After the service, his cousin asked him, "How many women can a man marry?"

"Sixteen," the boy responded.  His cousin was amazed that he had an answer so quickly.

"How do you know that?"

"Easy," the little boy said. "All you have to do is add it up, like the Minister said, 4 better, 4 worse, 4 richer, 4 poorer."
 


After a church service on Sunday morning, a young boy suddenly announced to his mother:

"Mum, I've decided to become a minister when I grow up."

"That's okay with us, but what made you decide that?"

"Well," said the little boy, "I have to go to church on Sunday anyway, and I reckon it will be more fun to stand up and yell, than to sit and listen."


A boy was watching his father, a Minister, write a sermon. 

"How do you know what to say?" he asked.

"Why, God tells me."

"Oh, then why do you keep crossing things out?"


A little girl became restless as the vicar's sermon dragged on and on. Finally, she leaned over to her mother and whispered, "Mummy, if we give him the money now, will he let us go?"


Mrs Terry asked her Sunday School class to draw pictures of their favourite Bible stories.  She was puzzled by Kevin's picture, which showed four people on an aeroplane, so she asked him which story it was meant to represent. 

"The Flight to Egypt ," was his reply.

Pointing at each figure, Mrs Terry said, "That must be Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus.  But who's the fourth person?" 

"Oh, that's Pontius - the pilot!"


A little girl was sitting on her grandfather's lap as he read her a bedtime story. From time to time, she would take her eyes off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek.

She was alternately stroking her own cheek, then his again. Finally she spoke up, "Grandpa, did God make you?"

"Yes, sweetheart," he answered, "God made me a long  time ago." 

"Oh," she paused, "Grandpa, did God make me too?"

"Yes, indeed, love," he said, "God made you just a little while ago." 

Feeling their respective faces again, she observed, "He's getting better at it, isn't he?"
