LETTERS TO THE PASTOR

    Dear Pastor,
         I know God loves everybody but He never met my
         sister.
         Yours Sincerely,
         Arnold (Age 8)
    Dear Pastor,
         Please say in your sermon that Peter Peterson
         has been a good boy all week.  I am Peter
         Peterson.
         Sincerely,
         Pete (Age 9)
    Dear Pastor,
         My father should be a minister.  Every day he
         gives us a sermon about something.
         Robert (Age 11)
    Dear Pastor,
         I'm sorry I can't leave more money in the
         plate, but my father didn't give me a raise in
         my allowance.  Could you have a sermon about a
         raise in my allowance?
         Love,
         Patty (Age 10)
    Dear Pastor,
         My mother is very religious.  She goes to play
         bingo at church every week even if she has a
         cold.
         Yours Truly,
         Annette (Age 9)
    Dear Pastor,
         I would like to go to heaven someday because I
         know my brother won't be there.
         Stephen (Age 8)
    Dear Pastor,
         I think a lot more people would come to your
         church if you moved it to Disneyland.
         Loreen (Age 9)
    Dear Pastor,
         I liked your sermon where you said that good
         health is more important then money but I still
         want a raise in my allowance.
         Sincerely,
         Eleanor (Age 12)
    Dear Pastor,
         Please pray for all the airline pilots.  I am
         flying to California tomorrow.
         Laurie (Age 10)
    Dear Pastor,
         I hope to go to heaven some day but later than
         sooner.
         Love,
         Ellen (Age 9)
    Dear Pastor,
         Please say a prayer for our Little League team.
         We need God's help or a new pitcher.
         Thank You,
         Alexander (Age 10)
    Dear Pastor,
         My father says I should learn the Ten Command-
         ments.  But I don't think I want to because we
         have enough rules in my house.
         Joshua (Age 10)
    Dear Pastor,
         Are there any devils on earth?  I think there
         may be one in my class.
         Carla (Age 10)
    Dear Pastor,
         I liked your sermon on Sunday.  Especially when
         it was finished.
         Ralph (Age 11)
    Dear Pastor,
         How does God know the good people from the bad
         people?  Do you tell Him or does He read about
         it in the newspapers?
         Sincerely,
         Marie (Age 9)







Fireman Bob rushed into a burning building and rescued a
beautiful young lady who was clad only in the top half
of her baby-doll nightgown. He carried her in his arms
down three flights of stairs and saved her from her sure
demise.

As they arrived safely a wash of gratitude rushed over
her. She looked at him with great fondness and
admiration, then said, "Oh, you are wonderful! It must
have taken great strength and courage to rescue me the
way you did."

"Yes it did," the fireman admitted. "I had to fight off
three other firemen who were trying to get to you first!"
