Overview

Praise be! Pastor Business visits Philadelphia to lead us in prayer to the Corporate Gods as we renew our vows to the benevolent employers, and remember Random Worker 75 who sacrificed his life so that we may all stay at our desks (PRAISE HIM)! As always at this time of year, we will visit The Stations of the H.R. Pastor Business will preach the Ascension of John Kriste. This is a mandatory meeting. Amen.
