The
Cross
The
Appalachian Christian Center is located on approximately 4.5 acres
of land. Behind the church, on the hillside, the cross has been displayed
as a reminder of our the tremendous price that our blessed Savior
paid for our salvation. The area around the edge is mulch. The white
area is white gravel. The cross is outlined with mulch. The cross
itself is made of red mulberry shrubbery. The shrubbery will be a
bright red in the spring and change during the course of the summer
into a deep maroon by late fall. One green mulberry plant is planted
at the foot of the cross and one at each end of the cross bar. These
are to remind us of the nails that pierced our Savior's flesh as He
hung upon the cross, that we might have life.
At
the head of the cross is a statue of our Blessed Saviour inviting
all to come to the cross.
