LYNN JONES IS A RETIRED PASTOR FRIEND OF MINE AND HAS THE FUNNIES STUFF ON FACE BOOK….I LOVE THIS ONE:

Two little girls were talking and one said to the other, "All who attend our church are our brothers and sisters in Christ." The other girl said, "What about the people who come to church only once in a while? She responded, "I guess they are sort of like our cousins in Christ." -- To all of you brothers and sister in Christ, as well as all of you cousins in Christ, I hope that you will be in church SUNDAY!
