A minister, a priest and a rabbi

A minister, a priest and a rabbi went for a hike one day. It was
very hot.They were sweating and exhausted when they came upon
a small lake. Since it was fairly secluded, they took off all their
clothes and jumped in the water.

Feeling refreshed, the trio decided to pick a few berries while
enjoying their "freedom." As they were crossing an open area, who
should come along but a group of ladies from town. Unable to get to
their clothes in time, the minister and the priest covered their
privates and the rabbi covered his face while they ran for cover.

After the ladies had left and the men got their clothes back on, the
minister and the priest asked the rabbi why he covered his face rather
than his privates. The rabbi replied, "I don't know about you, but in
MY congregation, it's my face they would recognize."
