The priest was in the middle of his sermon Sunday when Christina
Crippen noticed a man sidle in the door of her Colorado Springs church,
holding a large pinstriped box."I was subconsciously watching him," the 17-year-old choir member recalled Monday, "and I was thinking, ‘Hmmm, I wonder what he’s doing?’ "
Seconds later, she found out.
The intruder stepped within a few feet of the pulpit and hurled
a pie at the Rev. Don Armstrong, the beleaguered pastor of Grace Church
and St. Stephen’s Parish - a man not unfamiliar these days with being
the target of attention.Armstrong ducked behind the pulpit. The pie sailed over his
head and landed within inches of the choir stall where Crippen and the
choir watched aghast."See, I’m quick, aren’t I?" Armstrong cracked, according to Crippen and several other accounts.
Not so lucky were several choir members who got sprayed by the disintegrating confection, possibly a banana cream pie.
"It was very creamy and had a graham cracker crust," Crippen
said. "It splattered all across the floor, crumbs all the way to the
communion rail."
