Processional Cross
Back | Home
The processional cross stands adjacent to the altar when not in use. It was made by the same New Mexican metal worker who did the other metal work in our sanctuary. The glass work was done in Scottsdale, AZ by the same studio where the stained glass windows were made. The glass art in the cross must be seen closely at an angle to allow you to see the figure of Christ. You can make out the marks of the wounds in red and the yellow serum (“water”) which flowed from His side at the bite of the spear. He is shown in all of His activity: His passion and suffering, glorious resurrection, ascension departure, arms of invitation to “come unto” Him, and His triumphal return at the close of world history. It is easy to LIFT HIGH THE CROSS when all of these events are remembered.
