This may come as a surprise to those of you who don't live in Las Vegas, Nevada, but there are more Catholic Churches there than casinos.
Not surprisingly, some worshippers at Sunday services will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed.
Since they get the chips from many different casinos, the churches have devised a method to redeem these offertory chips. The churches send all their collected chips to a nearby Franciscan monastery for sorting, then the chips are taking to the casinos of origin and cashed in.

This, of course, is done by the chip monks....
