    Trey, It's all about bring people to God obviously. Ha! I just don't know if 18 large wooden signs along the side of the road is really going to lead anyone to faith. Picture worthy anyway.

    your comment is soo true Wade, if anything I think it might anoy people. The best witness is the way one acts towards others. I think I've seen these before signs before. But Texas is the buckle of the Bible belt so I could have seen them anywhere in Texas.

    Oh and about the balls?? What they mean...
    They signify papal colors originating from the keys of St. Peter, (Jesus says to Peter in Matthew 16:19 "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.") which in the modern era have usually been rendered in gold and silver - heraldic tinctures which equate with the colors yellow and white. The colors were adopted in 1808, when Napoleon forcibly incorporated the papal army into his own, papal loyalists wanted a symbol of resistance.
    There you have it!
