Lighthouse of God. Columbus, Ohio - Lighthouse of God Prayer Tower

Right off of I-71 past the Morse Road exit heading towards downtown stands this "Prayer Tower" whose keeper haunted me throughout my childhood ("Mommy - how does he get down?!"). Despite the recently added sign urging passing motorists to pray for TROOPS, BUSH, and VICTORY, the mannequin in the sailor suit has been here for at least 15 years. The lighthouse is actually attached to the top of the church, with the roof carrying a message akin to "Jesus Loves You" in different colored roofing tiles. [Ryan Lintelman, 06/04/2005]
