The Horse Who Went to Church

A rider faces a difficult situation, as she must attend church then almost immediately get her horse to a dressage show. There’s very little time after Mass to go home, hitch up the trailer, load up the animal, and be punctual for her first class. To make life easier, she decides to haul her gelding to church. Firecross is munching hay in his trailer in the parking lot as she sits in her pew waiting for Mass to begin. But the service never starts. Hooves suddenly clatter up the center aisle: they belong to Firecross, and pandemonium ensues. Will the horse trample the parishioners? What will Father Frank’s reaction be? Will he throw the owner out of his church with her horse? And, most importantly, will they still be able to make it to the dressage show in time to compete?

Chapter 5

“Are you hurt, Father?” I was afraid to know the truth, but I had to ask.

“Luckily for you, no,” came the whisper. “Now get that horse out of my church!”

“On it, Father!”

But by now the burly chap was chasing Firecross along the front of the pews and down past the wall of windows. The congregation, who’d been recording events on their cell phones, once more flattened themselves against the back wall as the horse roared towards them.

“Open the back door!” I yelled, running down the center aisle to the rear exits.

Too late. I narrowly missed being squashed by my own horse as he cantered past the onlookers, skidded round the corner, recovered, and made a dash up the other side of the church (the side with the saints on it) with the burly chap still in hot pursuit.
