During our coffee hour after worship on Palm Sunday, we painted wooden crosses. We let them sit to dry, then on the 2nd Sunday of Easter (April 27th) we held them up as we sang the hymn "Lift High The Cross" at the end of worship. People were then free to take their crosses home, or leave them on lend to the church. Those crosses that remained then became the display for our new votive candle table in our nave. What a beautiful project for both young and old!
