Church Gives New Meaning To Pay Toilets
Have Toilets, Will Travel
Posted: 2:36 p.m. EDT July 26, 2002
MANLY, Iowa -- An Iowa church has been flush with cash since it launched its "Have Toilets, Will Travel" campaign.
Parishioners at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Manly -- population 1,300 -- pay $10 to have one of three brightly-painted portable toilets placed in someone's front yard.
The porta-potty, in neon yellow, pink or orange, remains until the recipient pays $10 to have it taken away. For another $10, they can make sure it doesn't come back.
The Rev. Daniel Kucera, who moonlights as minister of potty placement, says he's raised $1,700 so far -- including $80 from folks who said, "Don't give it to me."
