The Reverend Johnson Paul of the Grace Miracle Church in Liberia has a problem. Seems that he is trying to find someone who will assist him in retrieving certain documents from a wealthy young orphan in a refugee camp in Abidjan. The good Reverend Stu Pidass of Our Lady of Perpetual Flatulence Holy Church is more than willing to assist.

Dear Reverend Johnson Paul,
Please excuse my delay in sending this email. Jennifer, who is one of my parishioners, brought your email to my attention on the weekend in hopes that I would be in more of a position to assist you. Unfortunately, the only internet access we have comes from a wireless feed from the sawmill next door and it had been down until this afternoon.
Let me introduce myself. I am Reverend Stu Pidass of Our Lady of Perpetual Flatulence Holy Church in Chandler, Indiana, U.S.A.
It is unfortunate that the strife in Liberia as well as in so many other countries has left the most innocent in such a state of crisis.
Please let me know if and how I may be of assistance to this little boy.
Your brother in Christ,
---
