There were five country churches in a small Texas town:
The Presbyterian Church, the Baptist Church, the Church of Christ, the Catholic Church and the Jewish Synagogue
Each church and Synagogue was overrun with pesky squirrels.
One day, the Presbyterian Church called a meeting to decide what to do about the squirrels. After much prayer and consideration they determined that
the squirrels were predestined to be there and they shouldn’t interfere with God’s divine will.
In The BAPTIST CHURCH the squirrels had taken up habitation in the baptistry. The deacons met and decided to put a cover on the baptistry and drown the squirrels in it. The squirrels escaped somehow and there were twice as
many there the next week.
The Church of Christ got together and decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God’s creation. So, they humanely trapped the Squirrels and set them free a few miles outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels were back.
But — The Catholic CHURCH came up with the best and most effective solution. They baptized the squirrels and registered them as members of the church. Now they only see them on Christmas and Easter .
Not much was heard about the Jewish Synagogue, but they took one squirrel
and had a short service with him called circumcision and they haven’t seen a squirrel on the property since.
