Parishioners organize drive-by parade for priests of local church

A local congregation showed appreciation to their priest and deacon with a drive-by surprise on Saturday.

Trucks from Hope Fire Company and Spangler Fire Company joined dozens of parishioners from Prince of Peace Church in Northern Cambria to support Father Matt Baum and Deacon Gary Gill.

Parishioners say the pandemic has not stopped Father Baum from finding ways to share masses with churchgoers.

“This was to show them how much we do care and appreciate them,” said Theresa Bauer.

Organizers say more than 180 people were invited to the parade.
