Description

SLHS member June Kinerson describes a family of stuffed animals, including three bears, which faithfully attended Salem United Methodist Church throughout the COVID flu pandemic of 2020 through 2022 when many of its human members remained home, thereby keeping its Pastor company and on his toes. June further described how parishioners who did attend church regularly switched around the stuffed animals and made-up stories for why they were occasionally absent or new animals appeared.
