A Preacher's Story by Paul Howlett


A Preacher’s Story by Paul Howlett

I heard this story from a travelling Gospel Preacher many years ago.

This Preacher was visiting a small church somewhere in Australia where he was to give the main address at the service that weekend.

He was staying with the local Pastor at his house. 

The visiting Preacher was shown through a front gate by the Pastor, to be greeted by a friendly and very ugly female bulldog.

“Oh exclaimed,’’ The Preacher. “That is the ugliest dog I have seen in years, its name has to be Gertrude!”

The Pastor showed the Preacher through his front door and as they both walked into the kitchen, the Pastor introduced his wife to the Preacher.

“I would like you to meet Gertrude, my wife.” 

The Preacher had to stay with them for the rest of the weekend.  I still think he is embarrassed!
