I love going to church. I love the music and the message.  I always learn something new. However I never expected to learn this.

I learned that Las Vegas Churches accept gambling chips. Did you know that there are more churches than casinos in Las Vegas? So when people go to worship on Sunday and it's time for the offering, some people will give casino chips rather than cash when the plate is passed.

The problem is that the chips come from many different casinos.  It was taking a lot of time and effort to cash them all in. One of the churches came up with a way to speed things up.

They send their collected chips to a nearby Franciscan Monastery to sort and then have the chips taken to the various casinos.  Yes, this is all done by..........

THE CHIP MONKS.   Hope this helps you get over the hump.
