			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A minister decided to do something a little different one Sunday morning.</p>
<p>He said &#8220;Today, in church, I am going to say a single word and you are going to help me preach&#8221;.</p>
<p>Whatever single word I say, I want you to sing whatever hymn that comes to your mind. The pastor shouted out, &#8220;Cross&#8221; !</p>
<p>Immediately the congregation started singing in unison, &#8220;The Old Rugged Cross&#8221;.</p>
<p>The pastor hollered out &#8220;Grace&#8221;. The congregation began to sing &#8220;Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound.&#8221;</p>
<p>The pastor said &#8220;Power&#8221;. The congregation sang &#8220;There is Power in the Blood&#8221;.</p>
<p>The Pastor said &#8220;Sex&#8221;. The congregation fell into total silence.</p>
<p>Everyone was in shock. They all nervously began to look around at each other afraid to say anything.</p>
<p>Then all of a sudden from way in the back of the church a little 87 year old grandmother stood up and began to sing &#8221; Precious Memories.&#8221;</p>
