Newly assigned officers to a naval air station are quite often "adopted" by a family. One such young officer, a lieutenant commander, kind of became
an uncle to a family's only four-year-old daughter. One Sunday, he asked her what she had learned in Sunday school. She said she had learned all
about the ten commanders, and that they were always broke.
This same little girl was told to draw her conception of the Hebrews' flight from Egypt. She came home with a picture of an airplane, all the
passengers with halos and one person up front without one. When asked about it, she explained, "Oh, that's Pontius, the pilot."
The Lord's Prayer has always been easy for kids to misinterpret, either through poor enunciators or from mumbling congregations. One little boy,
always a classic joke, said, "Harold be Thy name." Two other lesser-known prayers, though, are a little girl saying, "Give us this day our jelly
bread." Or the little New York boy who petitioned God to "Lead us not into Penn Station."
After hearing the Christmas story and singing "Silent Night," a Sunday school class in Sao Paulo was asked to draw what they thought the Nativity
might have looked like. One boy did a good likeness of Joseph, Mary, and the infant,
but off to the side was a roly-poly figure. The teacher, afraid that he had somehow worked Santa Claus into the scene, asked him who that was. She
wasn't sure whether she was relieved or even more worried when the boy responded, "Oh, that's Round John Virgin."
