One Sunday, a minister told his congregation that the church needed some extra money as the drains had just fallen in and asked his flock to prayerfully consider giving a little extra in the offering. He said that whoever gave the most would be able to pick out three hymns of their choice.
After the offering plates were passed, the pastor glanced down and noticed that someone had placed a $300 cheque in the offering.
He was so excited that he immediately shared his joy with his congregation and said he'd like to personally thank the person who placed the money in the plate. A very quiet, elderly, saintly lady all the way in the back shyly raised her hand. The pastor asked her to come to the front.
Slowly she made her way to the pastor. He told her how wonderful it was that she gave so much and in thanksgiving asked her to pick out three hymns. Her eyes brightened as she looked over the congregation, pointed to the three handsomest men in the building and said, "I'll take him and him and him."
