The Collection Plate Heist

Money filled envelopes began to make their way into the collection plates. It was the annual Family Day Event at Mount Beau . Every member of each family was required to attend. The pastor officiated the mini service, and after the final choir song, the treasurer walked ominously to the front of the church. In descending order, she gave a total collective donation each family contributed. When she got to the last family on the list, the Jones's, many of them stood and began to hastily make their way to the exit doors blocked by the armed church ushers. Despite their screams, attempts at fighting, and pleas, they are pushed into the sacrifice chambers.

The treasurer locks the doors to the offering chamber and swiftly makes her way to her private office, making sure she isn't being followed. She reaches into her pockets and pulls out an envelope of money with the words Jones written atop. Mr. Mickle, a member of the second to last family on the list, stands in her office waiting. He grabs the envelope removes the money from it , and tosses the envelope into the fireplace. "Thank you for saving my family," he tells her.
