THE FLOWERING CROSS


This is an especially striking and beautiful way to symbolize the new life that emerges from the death of Good Friday. Before the Easter Sunday service, the spikes and black drape are removed and the cross is covered with real flowers and the top draped in white. There are various ways to do this. At Grace we choose to use a chicken wire mesh over the cross and have each member place flowers on the cross as they arrive at church on Easter morning.
