The cross
A cross was constructed for each prayer vigil participant. Directions for constructing the crosses (and a photograph) is found in the next post.
Our United Methodist Men (UMM) received kits to make the crosses. Each kit contained the nails, wire and directions for assembly. Once the man had made the cross, he said a prayer as he held the cross.
The crosses were then returned to the church at a UMM breakfast. At the breakfast, the men prayed over the crosses together, dedicating them to God.
Once we knew who was participating in the vigil, a name was assigned to each cross. The crosses were then distributed to a prayer team. Each cross was held by a member of the team, and a pray was sent to God, using the name of the intended recipient of the cross.
A cross and a card describing its prayer journey was included in each partipant's packet.
