Pave The Way To The Cross

“All Visitors Welcome! My intrepid sidekick was not available for this sojourn but maybe that made for a better visit. Not sure that this biblical theme was up his alley. Back to my visit. Seeing the Empty Cross was not a problem from I-10, it was finding the road that led to it without GPS. Still, after winding my way to the top of the hill, one was met with signs to be respectful of others before entering the garden. The garden is laid out in the form of a cross with a paved path embedded with Scripture Tiles every 12 feet. There five bronze sculptures installed within the cross by one of three Christian artists that have donated their work for the garden. The top of the cross is occupied by an impressive 77’7” reddish-brown Empty Cross. Sitting in its shadow, it inspires that awe feeling that one gets when visiting gothic cathedrals. You can sit and listen to the worship music that surrounds the cross up until midnight. The cross is lit at night to maybe guide those who have lost their way in the dark. During daylight hours, you get a nice view of the Hill Country of Kerr county. A must see icon if only for a breathtaking view.”
