For this post I think it’s important to review our history with Pastor Fred.  It all started way back in August of 2008 with the infamous “Give us Flesh to Eat” sign.   I still don’t quite have that reconciled in my head, and apparently some of his congregation also had trouble with it, but of course they came around in the end, as we saw with a follow-up sign on the “Pastor Fred” post.  The next time we checked in with Pastor Fred he deviated some from the food theme, and addressed “Divine Rock.” Fortunately, he got back to the food theme pretty quickly.  Although it wasn’t clear that he ate the donkey, he did leave me with that as a possibility when he mentioned having been “Saved by…” the donkey.  Then Virginia Davidson locked us back into the importance of sustenence with the “Eat this Book” lecture.  Pastor Fred then went on a trip, and made sure to eat to be prepared. They may have crossed the line a little when they got into product endorsements on the Pepsi sign. After that, we got worried that they may have gone away as the sign was blank for well over two months.  Then, Pastor Fred returned, and almost to directly address my initial reaction assured us that there was nothing mysterious about his disappearance.

Which brings us to the latest from Pastor Fred:

I couldn’t agree more, Pastor Fred.  Whether it’s all that food you’ve been working on over there, your recent journey, your guest lecturers, or simply my enjoyment of your signs over all these months, it has indeed been very good.  (But to be honest, I still worry a little over that “flesh to eat” sign….)
