Cross

IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE

On a lonely stretch of highway just outside of
Groom, Texas (near Pampa) stands a 19 story
tall cross that can be seen for miles from any
direction. The arm spans are 110 feet across.
It is constructed of a welded steel framework
covered with steel sheeting.

The base of the cross is surrounded by life-
sized bronze statues of Jesus depicting twelve
stations of Jesus carrying the cross to Calvary

Cool... never knew about this.. did you?

yep, read some news before and some minor controversary....can't remember the details though. thanks for the reminder. Now that I'm a Texan I need to see how close that is.

There is another big cross like this somewhere on the Interstate between St. Louis and Indianapolis. I don't remember the exact location but it sits on the south side of the highway. It doesn't have the stations of the cross at the bottom but it is the same design and I'm guessing same size as this one. A beautiful sight as you travel across Illinois.

not quite as big, but there is a large cross in TN at Exit 141 I think, it was built in response to the new business that moved in and stands just outside their parking lot, I'm not sure how much the new adult store appreciated the welcome though!
