  1. Religious Stories

    Share Share Post
    There were several religious stories related in this locality in former years. This is one of them. Long ago there lived an old woman and she used to go to Mass every day. She kept a box and every day when she used to attend Mass she used to put a stone in the box. While she attended Mass she used to think thoughts about her neighbours. After a considerable time she came to the box and opened it she found only one stone in the box, and it was only one Mass she attended properly.
