Opawa Church Sign

This sign is in front of the Opawa Community Church. The church was damaged due to the earthquakes. So I guess the sign has rather a double meaning….Whenever I see the sign I imagine a long-haired Hollywood version of Jesus saying this with an Austrian accent!

    What does Opawa mean? I read somewhere it means ‘smokey river’, but is there another meaning?

      Good question, I’m not sure. Maybe someone else will be able to enlighten us 🙂
