A Cross Monument for Southwest Florida
Have you ever seen a Cross Monument next to an interstate during your travels, especially lit up at night? Do you remember the emotions that came over you at that time? It’s special! There is an opportunity for the church members in our circuit to provide such a monument to our Lord along Interstate 75 in Port Charlotte, Florida. We have an opportunity to remind the world of the gift our Lord gave to us with his death and risen body.

Dwayne Leininger came to Florida three years ago and joined Lutheran Church of the Cross. You know how the Lord sometimes calls you for one of his special requests? Well, Dwayne has been called to help with His cause. Our church was going to do this on our own but, after some discussion, it was felt that we should do this as a project for all the Missouri Lutherans in our circuit.
Lutheran Church of the Cross will provide the land and we have $38,000 in reserve from a private donor. The project will need about another $60,000. We will sell pavers for the walkway from the parking lot to the Cross Monument and, for large donors, there will be a bronze plaque with name ribbons to be added as requested.

With all the non-Christian issues we see with our Federal Government and the non-Christian leadership of the White House, we need to act on this project now before they disallow any crosses to be displayed in this country, especially any new ones. It would be great to get donors to help with this project by the end of this year and start the project immediately after the first of the year. We will not proceed with the project until we reach the $100,000 goal.

Won’t you please help with this monumental task of praising our Lord? Q&A may be used in any presentations that you might make to your congregation.

Respectfully,
Dwayne Leininger
Cross Monument Chairman
