Churchgoer has important message for drivers


From Florida-

The sign may make you chuckle, honk and Ron Herman hopes, put down your cell phone.

Herman is the sign keeper at The Episcopal Church of the Nativity on Del Rio Boulevard.

He put up a message Monday that's getting a lot of attention from church members and drivers.

It reads, "Honk if you love Jesus. Text while driving if you want to meet him."

Herman got so many compliments from churchgoers, he emailed pictures of the sign to Oprah Winfrey.

He says producers are interested in featuring the sign as part of Oprah's No Phone Zone campaign.

Herman doesn't text but he knows the 25 members of his church youth group do.

"We have a lot of children that will be graduating this year from high school and college and I know they do it," he says. "I see it one the road myself and it's a scary thing."
