Nectar of the Gods
Gentlemen, it doesn’t matter if you’re Catholic, Protestant, Hindu, Buddhist or Jewish, you are going to wish you converted.
Why? Because yesterday, St. Stephen’s Church in Barbourne, Worcester handed out beer to every man in the congregation. It was their way of saying “Happy Father’s Day.”
Considering how the last beer promotion like this went, it’s surprising the good Church took a chance on dealing with a throng of drunk men.
“All in all it went pretty well,” noted Rt. Rev. John Inge, the Bishop of Worcester. “I got a little worried when our men’s choir replaced ‘Amazing Grace’ with ‘100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall.’ But God will forgive.”
With the success of Beer Night, St. Stephens is thinking of expanding its appeal to attract even more men. “Next year we’re considering Halle Berry Poster Night or maybe we’ll just forget the whole dying for your sins thing, and play the ‘Die Hard’ trilogy,” Inge said.
The church’s ploy to use beer to get the guys closer to the Lord did in fact work. Later that night many men who attended were found praying to the porcelain god.
