Confession — 2
Tommy O’Connor went to confession and said, “Forgive me father for I have sinned.”
“What have you done Tommy O’Connor?”
“I had sex with a girl.”
“Who was it, Tommy?”
“I cannot tell you father, please forgive me for my sin.”
“Was it Mary Margaret Sullivan?”
“No father, please forgive me for my sin but I cannot tell you who it was.”
“Was it Catherine Mary McKenzie?”
“No father, please forgive me for my sin.”
“Well then it has to be, Sarah Martha O’Keefe.”
“No father, please forgive me, I cannot tell you who it was.”
“Okay, Tommy go say 5 Hail Mary’s and 4 Our Fathers and you will be abolished of your sin.”
So Tommy walked out to the pews where his friend Joseph was waiting. “What did ya get?” asked Joseph.
“Well I got 5 hail Mary’s, 4 Our Fathers, and 3 good leads.”
