Ministry for Impecunious Imbibitionistic Irishmen
Our congregation has always felt that, in the oveerall scheme of things, we have been extremely fortunate.
From the very first, then, we have felt it our destiny to assist those in need.
We therefore founded the Ministry for Impecunious Imbibitionistic Irishmen whose purpose is to minister to those found by The Awarders to be in need of a Church Subsidy.
Any and all parishoners may at any time become An Awarder if he/she is so moved by the circumstances surrounding one or more he or she finds to be Needy.
He/she ceases being An Awarder when said circumstances no longer elicit pangs of sympathy.
The Needy receive a Subsidy deemed appropriate for the circumstances by The Awarder(s).
The Subsidy is taken from The Church Subsidy Kitty kept, generally, behind the bar at O'Leary's Pub.
The Kitty is replentished by donations from parishoners who are in attendance at the Pub.
If the Kitty appears to be distressed, any Awarder may announce that condition to 'the house' and supervise the collection of alms for the Kitty.
Awarders are expected to be somewhat circumspect in Awarding a Subsidy.
In the meantime, may God Bless and keep you.
