"Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ Ministries" is located outside Groom, Texas, where everything is big. You cant miss the Cross as you drive down Route 66, or the Interstate, you can get a really cool view on Google Earth, or the Church web site.

Arranged in a circle around the base, are larger than life-size bronze sculptures of Jesus & the stations of the cross.
Outside that inner circle, there is another circle of sculptures that features other landmark religious scenes.

Take Exit 295 off I-40 for a close-up personal look. The whole site is open Day & Night all year round.
