This post probably is not what you expected from reading the title!!!
The town of Boyertown, Pennsylvania, some years ago adopted a voluntary program to enhance community spirit and solidarity among community groups...!!! Most of the Boyertown, Pennsylvania sports teams are depicted as 'BEARS'...including the High School and local independent sports teams!!!
Many businesses and enterprises began placing 'BEARS' in front of their establishments...each bear depicting in some way the nature of the entity at whose guard it stood by virtue of its decorations...!!! I have placed some in this post as examples and tagged them accordingly...!
My parish of Saint Columbkill, located in Boyertown, recently decided to join in this community endeavor...
Obtaining a few sponsors to underwrite the expense of the project, a BEAR was commissioned to be placed at the Church location...
The BEAR is completed, decorated appropriately, but awaits its winter coat (actually it must be overlaid with a protective urethane type coating to guard against the elements to which it will be exposed)...
Our good pastor, Father Robert Quinn, a jovial and engaging leader, BEARS a striking resemblance to the new mascot...Come to our church someday and see for yourself...!!!
