God is doing amazing things through this 19-story free-standing cross located on Interstate 40 in Groom, Texas. Ten million people pass by every year, and 1,000 stop each day. It is 190 fee tall and can be seen from twenty miles away.
It took eight months to complete, and it weighs 1,250 tons or 2 ½ million pounds. Construction of the cross frame was done in two shops in Pampa, Texas by more than 100 welders and erected in July of 1995.
My daughter, sister and mother took a road trip to see it in person on our way to visit my mother’s historic homeplace in Hart, Texas. We had a wonderful time together, viewing each of the bronze sculptures and taking in the amazing scene of this one-of-a-kind cross.
