15ft Christ threatens wedding

Sunderland Echo: 15ft Christ threatens wedding
They say faith can move mountains, but apparently for Jesus you need the fire brigade. Lends a whole new meaning to all that stuff in the Christian marriage ceremony about being gathered together in the presence of God, doesn’t it?
