Laughter Time ...

Jesuit (to an old poor nun): Sister, this evening I will give you a mask.
Sister understood it as “Mass” and said: Thank you father but at what
time.
Jesuit: Any time in the evening before supper.
Poor nun went home and decorated the chapel with a good number of
flowers.
That evening all sisters were waiting in the chapel for mass.
Father came, gave the mask to the sister and said good night.

A young scholastic said to his spiritual director: “Father! I can’t pray.”
Father: I am fed up of hearing this from you. For 2 yrs what were you
doing in the novitiate?
Jesuit scholastic: I was observing how others prayed.
Father: Oh God! Then shall we send you again to the novitiate?
Scholastic: I think that is a good idea.

A nun to her Jesuit spiritual director:
