His parish scheduled a children's "Birthday Party for Jesus." When ordering a cake and asking for it to be inscribed, "Happy Birthday, Jesus!" the clerk taking the order asked how to spell "Jesus."
That was Clue #1 - there may be trouble ahead!
When a parishioner went to pick up the cake she was told that, free of charge, the store had added some extra decorations to "dress up" the cake.
Here's what the baker did:
Well, the red and green color scheme seems to work for Christmas (and the name "Jesus" was correctly spelled!) but a short course in the liturgical year might be in order for the pastry chef!
(Click on the photo for a "bigger piece of the cake!")
Ha! Maybe this is the baker's way of sharing in the paschal mystery!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha!
ReplyDeleteI have an evangelical neighbor who put up a large cross on their lawn last Easter with the sign "He is Risen."
It didn't come down all year. In late November they dressed it up in Christmas lights.
Every time I go by their house I can't help but call out, "He is BORN!"
I'd like to enroll them in the short course.
