Impassioned Jokes

The crumbling, old church building desperately needed remodeling, so the preacher made an impassioned appeal, all the while looking directly at the richest man in town.
At the end of the pastor's sermon, the rich man stood up and announced, "Pastor, I will contribute $1,000."
Suddenly, a piece of plaster fell from the ceiling and struck the rich man on the shoulder. He quickly stood up again and shouted, "Pastor, I will increase my donation to $5,000."
Before he could sit back down, another piece of plaster fell on him and this time he virtually screamed, "Pastor, I will double my last pledge."
He sat down and a larger chunk of plaster fell, hitting him on the head. He abruptly stood once more and hollered, "Pastor, I will give $20,000!"
This prompted the deacon to shout, "Hit him again, Lord! Hit him again!"
