Hand-crafted wooden cross is gentle in the hand, powerful in the heart. Its ribbons, like miniature banners, proclaim the love of Christ. In gold lettering, the wine-colored ribbon states the central theme of the Christian faith, "I was here, you are forgiven." The lavender banner gives the reassurance, "I am near, you are cared for." The crimson ribbon makes a background for the two message ribbons and with the antique-style nail is a reminder of Jesus' sacrifice. Both the words and the symbols guide thoughts for both patient and visitors toward the good news of the faith. The soft-edged pine cross combines with these clear declarations of God's love to provide emotional support and spiritual comfort. At 7 1/2 inches tall, it is just the right size to see or to hold. ln clear top gift box with wire stand for display.
Give experiences like this: "I visited one of my friends in an Alzheimer's facility yesterday. It was her 90th birthday! I gave her a cross and she was fascinated with the ribbons. She asked me to read the words several times and then she held the cross to her heart. She kept touching the ribbons and said the words brought her peace. I truly appreciate your making it possible for me to share this special gift with her." (Betty S., North Carolina) You can do the same for a person who needs encouragement!
