Let me share you this story ...
Sneaking out for golf ...
Father Norton woke up Sunday morning and realizing it was an exceptionally beautiful and sunny early spring day, decided he had to play golf. So he told the Associate Pastor that he was feeling sick and persuaded him to say Mass for him that day. As soon as the Associate Pastor left the room, Father Norton headed out of town to a golf course about 40 miles away. This way he knew he wouldn't accidentally meet anyone he knew from his parish. Setting up th first tee, he was alone.
After all, it was Sunday morning and everyone else was in church !
At about this time in Heaven, Saint Peter leaned over to the Lord while looking down on Father Norton and exclaimed, " You're not letting him get away with this, are you ? "
The Lord sighed and said, " No, I guess not. "
Just then Father Norton hit the ball and it shot straight towards the pin, dropping just short of it, rolled and fell into the hole.
It was a 420-yard hole in one !
Saint Peter was astonished. He looked at the Lord and asked, "Why did you do that ? "
The Lord smiled and replied, "Whom 's he going to tell ? "
