The Sunday Funny

Dorothy came home from school with a flier for a 4-H Club overnight summer camp.  She wrote me a letter laying-out why she wants to go the camp.  I asked, "Are you into 4-H activities?"  And she answered, "More than any other camp!  I've been researching summer camps online.  I have found tons of camps that sound perfect -- I like every activity they list -- but in the last line of the description, they always say, 'The campers will work to strengthen their personal relationships with Jesus.'"
