Three baptists


Recommended Posts

A Methodist minister meets three Baptist deacons on the golf course

and invites them to come to his church some Sunday. Not too many

weeks thereafter and just as services are starting, they show up.

Attendance was good in the small Methodist church and there wasn't a

pew available. Several church members were already seated on folding

chairs. When the minister, just starting the service, saw the three

Baptist deacons enter, he leaned down from the pulpit and whispered to

the nearest usher, "Please get three chairs for my Baptist friends in

the back."

The usher, hard of hearing, leaned closer and said, "I beg your

pardon?"

"Get three chairs for my Baptist friends," repeated the minister.

The usher strained closer with a puzzled look still on his face.

Once more the minister tried, speaking slowly and distinctly.

"Three chairs. For the Baptists," he enunciated.

The usher's face lit up in comprehension, and he turned to face the

congregation.

"All right, everybody," he called out to the assembled worshipers.

"Three cheers for the Baptists!"
