FROM THE MOUTHS OF BABES…………

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though a whale is a very large mammal, its throat is very small.

The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. The teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human, it was impossible.

The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".

The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him!"

BE SAFE THIS JULY 4^TH!!!!

GOD BLESS YOU!!!

SUNDAY SEE YOU!!!
