ASKING FOR MORE MONEY

A 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 talked with the organist to see what kind of
inspirational music she could play after the announcement
about the finances to get the congregation in a giving mood.

“Don’t worry,” she said. “I’ll think of something.”

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.”

Just at that moment, the organist started playing, “The Star
Spangled Banner.”
