“My 3 ½ year old son was taking a trip to Lowe’s with me yesterday evening and as we pulled into the parking lot he said aloud, ‘Jesus died on the cross. Jesus is ALIVE!’ . He learned that from my wife and I about Easter a few weekends ago and he immediately recognized the Empty Cross sculpture at your property and said those words. What a blessing as a father to hear your son talk about Jesus when he sees the cross! I followed the conversation and debate about your project back when it was in the news. Although I’m not ashamed of the cross and I openly profess Christ, I did have a few minor reservations during the process. Those reservations went away when the cross was erected and I realized it was well done and it was prominent, yet not overwhelming. Thank you for persevering, while also adhering to the laws and rules we are governed by, which allowed that precious moment yesterday with my son.”
