(from crosswalk.com) for a smile this rainy Tuesday…

A small town had four churches Presbyterian, Methodist, Catholic and Baptist.

All four had a serious problem with squirrels in the church. Each church in its own fashion had a meeting to deal with the problem.

The Presbyterians decided that it was predestined that squirrels be in the church and that they would just have to live with them.

The Methodists decided they should deal with the squirrels lovingly in the style of Charles Wesley. They humanely trapped them and released them in a park at the edge of town. Within three days, they were all back in the church.

The Catholics also humanely trapped them and attempted to teach them the “rhythm” method which of course did not work.

The Baptists had the solution. They voted the squirrels in as members Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter.
