This morning on the news was a story that caught my interest and I had to share with those that haven't heard. A church in Mass. was struck by lightening and did not have the hundred's of thousands needed to rebuild the steeple. A representative from the now Verizon Cellular approached this community and offered to rebuild the steeple in exchange for the opportunity to hide their cellular towers. You know those eye sores that you see periodically that make it possible for us all to communicate.
Since Church steeples reach upward at a great height signaling the community that this is a place of worship, it becomes a great venue to house the hidden nasty towers! The location is perfect because churches are typically located within the center of the community where the transmission is not only necessary but is considered the prime location which in the past had to be avoided due to the appearance. This was a genius plan on the cellular company's part.

- The churches are receiving monthly lease agreement fees from these cellular companies which in turn helps them to provide assistance to their communities and others in need. Read original article.
Instead of a place to HEAR the Word, Churches are now TRANSMITTING the word.
