One of many Irish Female Saints The Ladies’ Auxiliary of St. Ann Church were engaged in vigorous debate about page 37 of “Secret Life of Saint Dymphna” when all hell broke loose. |
Father Gary threw open the doors in a small book room, crying, “Someone has broken into our church hall!”
Caught
between horror and mirth, all stood up, racing to the
church hall. Auxiliary president, Mrs. Girth was last to
take off running, the only one with mirth bubbling within, smiling at rear ends ahead of her. Her thoughts
were random and full of disdain.
Ha! Mrs. Garson! ...you did not know anyone saw you
having a romp with that handsome altar boy behind table skirts
in this very room! …and Miss Maulder, you wretch! Stealing holy wine, swigging it down after
service! Really! I could smell it on
your breath!
The herd had reached the hall, each searching the room.
Mrs. Girth hung back, watching,
smirking.
Ha! Ms. Barton!
No one knew that it was you who wolfed cartons of butter pecan and moose
tracks ice cream…but I saw
you.
