The Old Nun

An old nun in a convent next to a construction site heard the coarse language the workers used. Hoping to help them walk back on "the straight and narrow way", she decided to take her lunch, sit with the workers and talk with them. So, she fixed herself a sandwich which she put in a brown bag and walked over to the spot where the men were on their lunch break. She walked up to the group and with a big smile asked: "Do you men know Jesus Christ?"

They shook their heads and looked at each other somewhat confused. Then, one of the workers looked up to the other men still busy at work and yelled out, "Anybody up there know Jesus Christ?"

One of the steelworkers yelled down and asked, "Why?"

The worker yelled back, "Because his wife is down here with his lunch!"
