Well, God bless you.

It's a joy to come into your homes.

And if you're ever in our area,

please stop by and be a part of one of our services.

I promise you, we will make you feel right at home.

I like to start with something funny

and I heard about this middle-aged woman.

She had a heart attack on the operating table.

She asked God if this was it.

God said, no, you have 40 more years.

Upon recovery, she decided to stay in the hospital,

have a face lift, tummy tuck, liposuction,

and extreme makeover.

Two months later, as she was leaving the hospital,

she was hit by a car and killed.

She got to heaven and said, God, I don't understand.

I thought you said I had 40 more years.

God said, I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you.
