There once was a boy named Raj. Raj waved at the audience.
(Enter brothers and sister)
Raj lived with his 2 brothers and 1 sister. They all loved eating a spicy indian dish called Biryani. Sometimes they fought, and sometimes they hugged. They hugged and hugged. It got very awkward.
But when he was only in grade 10, he decided to become a priest, so he joined the seminary.
(Exit brothers and sister)
Raj lived in India, where there were
(Enter elephant)
elephants that trumpeted
(Enter tiger)
Tigers that roared
(Enter Monkeys)
And monkeys that hopped about and screeched
(Enter Indian people)
And Indian people who honked their horns all day and night.
The elephant, the tiger, the monkeys and the people all made their noise, while Raj raised his hands and said, "I want to have a quiet life!"
All the animals and people fell silent and humbly apologized before leaving the stage.
(Exit animals and people, enter Bishop)
A Bishop ordained Raj as a priest, and he became known as Fr Raj. The Bishop said, "Fr Raj, would you like to move to Canada?"
Fr Raj shrugged and said, Do they speak English?"
The Bishop said "yes."
"Do they have cricket?" Then he mimed a cricket move.
The bishop shook his head sadly, but said "Kind of. They call it Hockey."
Fr Raj said "Good enough."
So Fr Raj spread his arms like airplane wings, and flew to Canada.
(Exit Bishop)
Canada was way colder than India! Fr Raj shivered, but with a big smile, he said, "This will be my new home!"
(Enter moose)
Suddenly, a lanky moose walked onto the stage. The audience declared, "It's a friggen moose!"
The moose bellowed.
(Enter Loon)
Then a loon flapped over and landed in the pond, making loon sounds.
(Enter Canadian people)
Canadian people stumbled around, saying "Sorry, eh?" to each other, and pointing out the moose.
Fr Raj shook his head, saying, "Well, it's still quieter than India!"
(exit animals, people, Enter Peter)
Then he met a man named Peter. The audience gave Peter a standing ovation. Eventually, they sat down again and listened to the skit. Peter was smart, funny, talented and extremely good-looking.
Fr Raj said, "And humble too!" Everyone nodded enthusiastically.
Peter said, "Can we have a youth group at your church?"
Fr Raj said, "Sure! As you know, I live in the same building!"
Peter smiled mischievously. He said, "That's OK- we'll be quiet."
The audience laughed.
That night, the whole youth group counted down to seven O'Clock, before yelling "Happy New year!"
Fr Raj discreetly snuck out and played pickleball with his friends.
Other nights, Fr Raj would play Ultimate Frisbee with Peter and the youth.
(Exit Peter)
Fr Raj was a great preacher and pastor, and he loved being a priest. But one day he died. No one knows how or when. The audience cried.
Fr Raj- Pray for us!
