It was the day after Christmas at a church in San Francisco. The pastor
of the church wasl ooking over the creche when he noticed that the baby
Jesus was missing from among the figures. He hurried outside and saw a
little boy with a red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the
little infant Jesus.

So he walked up to the boy and said, "Well, where did you get your passenger,
my fine friend?"

The little boy replied, "I got Him at church."

"And why did you take Him?"

The boy explained, "Well, about a week before Christmas I prayed to the
little Lord Jesus and I told Him if He would bring me a red wagon for
Christmas I would give Him a ride around the block in it."

This story made a classic tear-jerking Dragnet episode (although it began, "This is the city: Los Angeles, California").

After Friday and Gannon saw the boy bring Jesus up the aisle with the wagon to put him back in the manger, the priest said to Friday, "You see sir, my people are poor". To which Friday answered, "Are they, Father?"
