"Gift Acknowledgement" joke

One of the church elders, knowing how fond the minister was of cherry brandy, offered to present him with a bottle on one condition - the pastor would have to acknowledge receipt of the gift in the church paper.
"I will gladly do that," responded the pastor.
As soon as the next issue of the church magazine came out, the elder immediately turned to the 'appreciation' column. There he read: The minister extends his special thanks to Elder Jackson for his gift of fruit and for the spirit in which it was given."
