JOB HISTORY
My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned...couldn't concentrate. Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the ax. After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it...mainly because it was a so-so job. Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was too exhausting. I wanted to be a barber, but I just couldn't cut it. Then I tried to be a chef -- figured it would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn't have the thyme. I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard.

From the Choir Loft
To make it easier for more people to be a part of our ministry, we have three rehearsals / week to make it more convenient for people to attend one or more of our rehearsals. Tuesday evenings (7:15 – 8:30 PM), Wednesday evenings (7:45 – 8:30 PM), and Thursday evenings (7:00 – 8:30 PM). We are rehearsing in order to present our Christmas musical: “Noel.” We will be presenting it at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church (North Tonawanda) and at Sheridan United Methodist church. We would love to have you join us! For further information contact Bud @ 716.934.7734 or tubamanbud@gmail.com
The “Saint”
There were two evil brothers. They were both rich and used their money to hide their sinful ways from the public eye. They even attended the same church and “appeared” to be perfect Christians. Then, their pastor retired and a new one was hired. Not only could the new pastor see right through the brothers’ deception, but he also spoke well and true, and the church started to swell in numbers. A fundraising campaign was started to build a new sanctuary.
All of a sudden, one of the brothers died. The remaining brother sought out the new pastor the day before the funeral and handed him a check for the entire amount needed to finish paying for the new building. “ I have only one condition,” he said. “At his funeral, you must say my brother was a saint.” The pastor gave his word and deposited the check.
The next day at the funeral, the pastor did not hold back. “He was an evil man,” he said. “He cheated on his wife and abused his family.” After going on in this vein for a short time, he concluded with, “But, compared to his brother, he was a saint.”
