Default Another Shield

Here is my latest carving. A take off of Lynn's Shield.

This one is a little different. And there is a story to go with it.

Every Friday morning at 6 AM a group of men from area chruches get together over coffee & donuts to pray for our local government, our country and the men and women who serve in the military along with police and firefighters.

We gather under the Ironmen logo. I have included a picture of the business card and the shield I completed today using the logo.

I plan to present this to the director after I get the frame completed.

The symbolism should be quite clear when you see the shield and the business card.

Comments welcome.
