How to get to Heaven from Ireland

A true Story from an Irish Sunday School Teacher

I was testing children in my Dublin Sunday school class to see if they
understood the concept of getting to heaven.

I asked them, "If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale
and gave all my money to the church would that get me into heaven?"

"NO!" the children answered.

"If I cleaned the church every day, mowed and weeded the garden, and
kept everything tidy, would that get me into heaven?"

Again, the answer was “NO!”

"If I gave sweets to all the children, and loved my husband, would that
get me into heaven?"

Again, they all answered “NO!”

I was just bursting with pride for them. I continued, "Then how ever can
I get into heaven?"

A little boy shouted out, "YUV GOTTA BE FOOKN’ DEAD."

'Tis a curious race, the Irish. Kinda brings a tear to the eye, doesn't it?
