I know many of us have... issues? with our pastors, but even so, most of us know the poor guys work their tails off, in ways few in the parish will ever appreciate or even know.
So, a joke in tribute to, and a word of thanks to Fr. A, Fr B, and Fr C:
During a colloquium, a number of priests from different orders are gathered in a church for Vespers.
While they are praying, all the lights suddenly go out.
The Benedictines continue praying from memory, not missing a beat.
The Jesuits begin to discuss whether the blown fuse means they are dispensed from the obligation to pray Vespers.
The Franciscans compose a song of praise for God's gift of darkness.
The Dominicans revisit their ongoing debate on light as a signification of the transmission of divine knowledge.
The Carmelites fall into silence and slow, steady breathing.
The parish priest looks for a flashlight, finds the basement and replaces the fuse.
Universalis, your very own breviary in pixels...
