Excuses for being late to Church

How about this one the next time you are late for Church? There was an elephant in my cornfield. No kidding. Last Sunday one of the elders at Kisibee Church, made an apology for being late for service. It seems he had sent his daughter out to pick some maize and she came running back yelling that there was an elephant in the field. He grabbed a metal pot and spoon and ran out to scare it off. The good thing is that the elephant left without destroying much of his crop. The elephants can destroy a whole year's income for a family. So the next time you are running late try this story.
