The Church Gossip


Recommended Posts

-- Church gossip --

=============

Mildred , the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor of the church's

morals, kept sticking her nose into other

people's business.

Several members did not approve of her extra-curricular activities, but

feared her enough to maintain their silence.

She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a new member, of being

an alcoholic after she saw his old pickup parked in front of the town's only

bar one afternoon.

She emphatically told George and several others that everyone seeing it

there would know what he was doing.

George, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just turned and

walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or deny. He said nothing.

Later that evening, George quietly parked his pickup in front of Mildred's

house..............and left it there all night
