I was selling tickets at a booth at an outdoor festival. Went to throw away some trash then got distracted wandering around forgot that I was supposed to be working at the booth. Told a woman that I was worried I would get in trouble for abandoning the table where I was supposed to be working but she told me that it was not a big deal. We walked together to Catholic church and saw that one part of the building was abandoned and overgrown. She asked me if I'd ever slept in there when I was homeless and I said yes. Then we walked around to the other side of the church building which was still in use, walked in and talk to a secretary and a priest. The secretary and the woman I was with were suddenly naked from the waist up. The woman was topless, and hugging and clinging onto me. I talked to the priest about the human body is God's creation and therefore nakedness shouldn't be considered obscene by Christians. Then the priest morphed into a younger man who was more like a groundskeeper. I asked him if he would give the woman and I a tour of the church because I thought it might have a lot of beautiful artwork inside of it. He said he would not give us a tour but he would invite us up to his room to smoke marijuana with him.
