I'm not sure if anyone has heard about this, or posted on it yet. Isn't it neat? Has anyone seen this on the news, or in person?
Man with cross on mission to cross country
PORT NECHES - With a large wooden cross slung over his right shoulder, Jeffrey and his dog pal, Lexus from Texas, move across the country garnering attention from passing motorists.
God woke me up on Aug. 20 and told me to cross the country, Jeffrey said from the roadside near First Baptist Church on Magnolia Avenue on Thursday.
The year-long mission to spread the word of God began at Jeffrey's home in Pilot Mountain, N.C., and will continue as he moves from through Houston to Arizona and on to California. The stops in between are unknown, he said.
Traffic flows as usual down the well traveled roadway near Jeffrey and his dog. A duffle bag and coat are strapped to a lower section of the cross and at the bottom is a wheel to help with leverage. A strap pulls a small red wagon with supplies and a backpack. Lexus rides in the wagon.
When Jeffrey received the message from God he was at a point in his life were he was waiting for death to take him; 45 pounds underweight, kidneys failing, deteriorated joints and more. He had given up all hope.
