One Sunday, when counting the money in the weekly offering, the Pastor of a small church found a pink envelope containing $1,000.
It happened again the next week!
The following Sunday, he watched as the offering was collected and saw an elderly woman put the distinctive pink envelope on the plate. This went on for weeks until the pastor, overcome by curiosity, approached her.
โMaโam, I couldnโt help but notice that you put $1,000 a week in the collection plate,โ he stated.
โWhy yes,โ she replied, โevery week my son sends me money and I give some of it to the church.โ
The pastor replied, โThatโs wonderful. But $1,000 is a lot, are you sure you can afford this.. How much does he send youโ
The elderly woman answered, โ$10,000 a week.โ
The pastor was amazed. โYour son is very successful; what does he do for a livingโ
โHe is a veterinarian,โ she answered.
โThatโs an honorable profession, but I had no idea they made that much money,โ the pastor said. โWhere does he practiceโ
The woman answered proudly, โIn Nevada. He has two cathouses โ one in Las Vegas, and one in Reno.โ
