Josh was folding bulletins. He heard a knock. 

" Hi Josh".

" Hi Mr Tang". He turned to the man helping him fold. " Frank, this is Mr Tang who is staying at the motel".

They shook hands. " Nice to meet you".

" Josh, where is Pastor Winters bible study?".

" Across the hall".

As Mr Tang walked out, he noticed a small safe in the corner of the workroom.

A short time later, Jessica ran into the bible study.

" Pastor Winters, we've been robbed".

" What!". Pastor Winters jumped up from his chair. " How?".

" Mr Tang wanted to speak with Josh". Jessica began to cry. " He was waiting in the workroom".

Josh walked in. " What's wrong?".

" Have you seen Mr Tang?".

" He quickly walked past me". He frowned. " He said he had to get back to the motel". He frowned. " What's wrong?".

Jessica dabbed her eyes with a tissue. " The church has been robbed".
