COMING UP WITH MORE MONEY


The minister was  preoccupied with
thoughts of how he was going to  ask
the congregation to come up with
more money  than they were expecting
for repairs to the church  building.
Therefore, he was annoyed to find that 
the regular organist was sick and a
substitute had  been brought in at the
last minute. The substitute  wanted to
know what to play. Here's a copy of 
the service," he said impatiently. "But,
you'll  have to think of something to play
after I make  the announcement about
the finances."During  the service, the
minister paused and said, "Brothers
and Sisters, we are in great difficulty;
the  roof repairs cost twice as much
as we expected and  we need $4,000
more. Any of you who can pledge $100
or more, please stand up."
At that moment, the substitute organist
played "The Star  Spangled Banner."
And that is how the substitute became
the regular  organist!
