I remember one Reverend in our area who had planted pineapples.
He also found at the Church Parish two banana plantations by the parish --- one for the reverend's family, another as a commercial project for the parish.
When the pineapples were a few weeks old, he received a message of transfer.
Out of anger, he invited his clique of favourable Christians and gave them all ready bananas in both plantations. He slashed down all the pineapples.
The head of laity silently went to the bishop and narrated what the Reverend had just done.
On hearing that, the bishop whispered to the Diocesan Secretary to cancel the transfer. He sent the Reverend a letter: *"On second thought, we felt that your transfer came very soon, and have therefore decided that you stay in the parish until further notice.* May God lead you in His service."
If you were the Reverend, where would you start the sermon from, the following Sunday? 😄😄😄😄
