At a certain parish the tabernacle was a wide rectangle set into the wall. One day the primary children were learning about the Mass. At the end of the lesson, Sister asked, "Does anyone have any questions?"
With furrowed brow, a child inquired,
"Why does Father put Jesus into the microwave?"
Kids. You never know what they're going to say next!
