The Catholic Cat

One afternoon a rich old lady went to her Pastor and asked him to say Mass for his dead Cat. The Pastor said, "I can't say Mass fro your Cat because it's an animal and it does not have soul." The old lady replied, "okey Father, I will just go and offer Mass to the Anglican Church and will give my ten thousand dollar donation." Upon hearing this the Pastor said, "wait! anyway you are Catholic, your cat is also Catholic, give me your donation and I will say Mass for your Cat."

LOVE UNLIMITED

One day a mother hen was roaming around the animal kingdom boasting that she offered her eggs for her masters breakfast for the next day. On her way she met the mother pig saying, " The master will have eggs and ham for his breakfast tomorrow". The mother pig said, "You're happy because you just give your eggs, but I give my life."
God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, Jesus Christ. Jesus offered his life for all of us that we may be saved from eternal damnation. This is the concrete proof of God's love for men and women. Though we have sinned, God did not abandon us, but instead offered the life of his only Son for the redemption of mankind.
And the love that he gives us is without boundaries. He loves us no matter what. He loves not only his friends and close associates but to everyone who were created in the image and likeness of God. His love is limitless and everlasting.
And God is reminding us, to love others the same way as he loves us. To love both the unloveable and unlikeable.

COME DOWN OR I WILL CUT THE TREE

A retarded boy who is mute and deaf climbed a coconut tree. His parents asked him to come down because they are afraid he may fall down. But as if they are just talking to a wall. So they requested the village chief to help them ask the boy to come down. The village chief was shouting at the top of his voice calling the boy to come down, but the boy never listened to him. It happened that the pastor was passing by, so the parents ask the priest to tell the boy to come down. The priest obliged, and got close to where the coconut tree is. The priest started to talk to the boy and as if he is waving his hands to the boy. And the boy hurriedly went down.
Bystanders were amazed because it did'nt not take a minute for the priest to ask the boy to come down the tree. So they told the priest, "Father, you are really holy because you were able to ask the boy to come down. Did you say a prayer for him or did you blessed him?" The priest said, " No. what I said is, are coming down or i will cut the tree?"
