A humble country priest decides that he would feign illness one Sunday morning and skip service so he could go bear hunting. As he comes around a corner while walking on a narrow path with a steep gully on one side, the priest comes face-to-face with a big black bear. He's so frightened at this unexpected encounter that he slips off the ledge and falls into the gully. Realizing he's broken both legs, the priest starts to yell for help. The bear hearing his cries jumps into the gully and gets prepared to attack the priest and eat him for breakfast. "Oh Lord", the priest starts to pray, "I'm just a humble country priest. I'm sorry I skipped service and lied about my illness, but if you could make this big bear a Christian so he won't attack and eat me, I will NEVER do this again. Amen." Immediately, the bear stops his charging and gets down on his knees. He presses his big front paws together and starts to speak, "Oh Lord, thank you for this meal that I'm about to receive."
