Deacon: Usher, you’re lookin’ a little “peak-ed”
Usher: Yeah, must have been somethin’ I ate
Deacon: Do you remember what it was?
Usher: I think it was the latest sermon served up by the pastor. He got together with some marketing people to address the homeless thing in the community and then fed it to us.
Deacon: Fed you what?
Usher: Oh, you know - let’s all do something for the homeless this week. He put together some program so the congregation could go give ‘em some food, buy ‘em a blanket and hand ‘em a tract.
Deacon: And what’s wrong with that?
Usher: Nothin’ I guess, next week is diversity week, following is prison week, then divorce week, short-term missions week, singles week, VBC week…… It’s McChurch Deak, McChurch.. Come and get your limited time offer to minister - then we’ll all go to Starbucks and drink lattes after.

Every group only needs help one week each year. Right?

Usher: You got it - it’s a mission smorgasbord and you can go home patting yourself on the back for all the good you did!

This stuff is almost too true to be funny. Ugh.
