Substitute Organist

On a cold, rainy Sunday morning, the church organist came down
with the flu, so the substitute organist came in to the
minister's office. "What should I play?" he asked. Obviously
annoyed, the minister replied, "Well, my sermon is on
forgiveness, so you can think of something to go along with
that. But first, you'll have to let me make a few announcements.
The organist walked into the sanctuary for the service.


When it came time, the minister walked up and said, "Okay, as
you all know, there was a storm last night that damaged the roof
of part of our building. We need money to repair this. If you
are willing to donate $100, please stand." At that moment, the
substitute organist played the Star Spangled Banner. And that is
how the substitute organist became the full time organist.
