Bert's Joke
of the Month
One of the local pastors (name unmentioned)
was telling me this story:
Just as I began my Church Service, the electricity in the church failed. The ushers and I found some candles and placed them
around the sanctuary.
Then I reentered the pulpit, shuffled my notes and muttered,
"Now where was I?"
A tired voice called out, "Right near the end!".
