INNOCENCE IS PRICELESS

One Sunday morning, the preacher noticed little Alex
standing in the foyer of the church, staring up at a large
plaque. It was covered with names with small American
flags mounted on either side of it.

The seven year old had been staring at the plaque for some
time, so the preacher walked up, stood beside the little
boy, and said quietly, "Good morning Alex."
"Good morning Preacher," he replied, still focused on the plaque.

"Preacher, what is this?" he asked.

The preacher said, "Well, son, it's a memorial to all the
young men and women who died in the service."

Soberly, they just stood together, staring at the large plaque.

Finally, little Alex's voice, barely audible and trembling
with fear, asked,

"Which service, the 9:45 or the 11:15 ?"

When I read things like this, I think back to when I was an altar boy in the mid-70s. I don't know how many funerals I served at before I discovered that they didn't always put an American flag on the casket.

I think that the first time I didn't see one was when I finally asked someone about it afterward.
