Summary
The Easter Cross Witness was created to give disciples of Jesus Christ an opportunity during the Easter Season to witness to the Risen Christ. A cross is placed blank side out during the Lenten Season and is turned on Easter Sunday to declare, “He is Risen…And It is Finished! The Easter Cross Witness was created to be a witness; not yard art or an Easter decoration. The Easter Cross Witness gives a visual witness that prayerfully creates opportunities for a verbal witness. The Holy Spirit has used the ECW to testify to the resurrection of Jesus Christ in a powerful, tangible way.
- The ECW is a way a YOUR church can enlist all of its members to be missionaries in the communities and neighborhoods that God has placed them.
