Nature's wonder of colors and textures inspired the creation of the Journey Holding Cross. Sculpted by nationally-known artist Gary E. Hale, the Journey Holding Cross is a reassuring symbol of hope on all our journeys. Colors are God's idea, and the colors of each Journey Holding Cross are natural and vibrant. When we embrace the Journey Holding Cross we discover its textured landscape of peaks and valleys- those ups and downs, joys and troubles, that invite us beyond ourselves to God and to others. In the cross we see how big is God's love. Our steady embrace is our connection. The cross is a constant reminder that there can be good in bad times, that hope is greater than despair. That God is holding on to us, so we can keep holding on. Made to fit in the palm of your hand, the cross is ideal for personal use in prayer and meditation, and is also a meaningful gift for all occasions.
