At a small parish in rural England there lived a priest and several nuns One day one of the older nuns was noticing that the rugs in the church were beginning to fray She went to the priest and told him Father I believe your rugs need to be replaced soon The priest thanked her for bringing it to his attention and told her that he thought that she had been there long enough to refer to church property as our not your Several days later the same nun noticed that the hedge needed to be trimmed She again went to the priest and told him Father I ve noticed that your I mean our hedge needs to be trimmed The priest thanked her for again bringing something to his attention and this time asked her if she had seen his watch that had gone missing She said she hadn t but assured him she would look for it A few days later the parish received word that the bishop would be coming for a visit The entire parish was busy readying the church for the visit On the day the bishop arrived the same nun came down the front stairs yelling Father Father I found your watch The bishop said How wonderful my child Where did you find it? After saying hello to the bishop the nun turned to the priest and said I found it under OUR bed
