New Pastor Is Visiting Homes – Gets Hilarious Response He Was Not Expecting

Given how serious things have been lately we thought it would be fun just to share a bit of Christian levity with you this week.

Enjoy!


A hilarious joke is going viral this week about a pastor who was new to the job, and it’s sure to make you smile!

A new pastor was out one day visiting the homes of his parishioners. When he got to one house, it was obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Taking out his business card, the pastor wrote “Revelation 3:20” on the back of it and stuck it in the door.

The next Sunday, when the offering was processed, the pastor discovered that the card had been returned. Added to the card was the cryptic message, “Genesis 3:10..”

The pastor picked up his bible so that he could check the citation, and as soon as he read it, he burst into laughter.

Revelation 3:20 begins with the line, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock.”

Genesis 3:10 states, “I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for I was naked.”

Did you enjoy this lighthearted, Christian joke? If so, we’ve got another one for you!

This story is about a shy priest who was greeting wedding guests at his chapel. The priest was so nervous that he didn’t say very much to the guests.

When the couple got to the altar, the priest gave the best speech that anyone there had heard. He was suddenly incredibly confident and expressive, and he had everyone in attendance laughing!

As soon as the couple said their vows, however, the priest went back to being shy and quiet. The groom walked up to him after the wedding and said, “Why are you so shy? You seemed like a different person when you were giving that speech!”

“I know…” the priest said, “but that was just my altar ego”.

LOL! Hope you have many more good laughs today! Share with your family and friends so they can enjoy a few laughs with you too.

*** October 4th, 2026 *** 

Can you believe fall is here?  All Hallow’s Eve and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  We wish you the wonderful opportunity to experience God’s beauty with the changing of the leaves and colors of His amazing creation!

Our prayer here at the LIGHT! is that you would experience God’s love and reflect the light of Jesus to all whom the Spirit brings into your life.  In excelsis Deo!

Please pray for the war that we are undertaking with Iran right now.  Pray for the soldiers who are in harms way and for the family of those who’ve fallen.  Pray that we would be able to achieve peace and be clear about why we are there.

Please continue to pray for our divided country.  May not only the Truth of Jesus prevail but also the “truth” of reality.  Helping Americans to focus more on solving problems using facts rather than debating even what the facts are is much more productive.  Let the politicians focus on *policy*.  We, as the Church, should focus on our *culture* and not depend on policy to define culture.  As we have said many times, “you can’t legislate morality.”  We can, however, be “winsome” as the Bible encourages us to be, and “win some” of our friends who are not yet believers to the faith!

Please pray for peace in the Middle East between Hamas and Israel.  We unequivocally support Israel’s right to defend itself.  We support non-Hamas affiliated Palestinians who want peace – they need humanitarian relief.  Israel should not be oppressing these folks.

Continue to pray for the Ukraine & Russian people suffering under Putin. Please pray for President Trump to stand against this aggression and to ensure the continued aid for the Ukrainians to keep fighting for their independence from the authoritarian regime of Vladimir Putin. 

*** Based on your feedback we will shift to hosting the services online even after the risk of COVID has lessened ***

Services
Our current focus is on learning more about “Welcoming the Stranger” – God’s heart for us as His people in how we show hospitality to those who are aliens in our land – status notwithstanding.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
