What Are You Doing in Response to the Atheist Bus Ads?

Here in Ottawa the atheist bus ads have been in the papers. We responded by putting up on our sign "There is a God, so stop worrying and enjoy your life." It got us quite the positive response.

This story also ran in the London Free Press and a few other papers across the country. In the Ottawa paper we got a full colour picture on page 3. The story and our sign were also mentioned in a phone in show on local talk radio station CFRA, and in a feature interview on Radio-Canada.

From An Other's Perspective

“Could something be going on out there? Could something be up? Are other voices speaking than those we are accustomed to hearing? Could it be that God is on the loose and whispering to others?

Life Sized Bobblehead Float

On Sunday, May 17th, 2008, Westminster United Church presented a life size version of the Wondercafe  Bobblehead PSA to the hundreds of people crowded together to watch the Annual Calithumpian Parade, in Thamesford, Ontario. 

Flags and a globe were added in order ensure the PSA  fit with the "Around the World" theme of the parade, and lead to the award of "Best Themed Float".   As the float went by, laughter and positive comments followed!  A clever ad presented creatively to spread the message!  Thank you Wondercafe and well done Westminster!
