Symbols of our faith #1

Pastor Charles has a large assortment of cross on the wall outside the church office that have been given to or purchased by him over the years. From time to time a different cross, and how it came to be on display at St. Paul's, will be shared.

This cross, done in a traditional mosaic style, was acquired on one of the Alkula's trips in Ravenna, in the Emilia-Romagna region of Northern Italy. Mosaics are found throughout the city and in particular the eight churches, shrines, and basilicas that gained Ravenna a UNESCO heritage designation.
