Three guys go into a church: a deaf pastor, a blind pastor, and a one-legged piano player.

This not a variation on the "three guys go into a bar" joke, however. This is real life: elements of this morning's memorable baptism service.

The baby's grandfather was the blind pastor present to anoint his grandson.

The executive pastor of the church, who is deaf, presided.

After explaining baptism and actually splashing the child's forehead with water, the music began, played by the one-legged pianist. A friend recently explained that he received a state-of-the-art prosthesis as part of a study through Mayo.

Those are the facts, but I can't stop thinking about the whole scene: the deaf, the blind, the lame. And a little child.

That'll preach.
