Yesterday afternoon, all that could be seen of the Easter version of Dominick Zinanni’s cross was in a bag, which you can see below.

It was unwrapped for the three Easter services.

Above, you can see what it looked like at the First United Methodist Church of Crystal Lake.

The altar flowers and candles were beautiful.

It was certainly strange weather for Easter.

It didn’t stop some little girls sitting near us from wearing their Easter finery.

But walking to our car after the service, the ice cycles hanging from the church roof and the cross behind our outdoor sanctuary seemed a bit strange standing in the snow.

Below is what was posted last night:

Or is it?

With the garbage bag over it, I don’t have a clue what is inside.

This where First United Methodist Church Sculptor Dominic Zinanni put his Easter Sunday rendition of the cross.

What will it look like tomorrow?

Find out for yourself by venturing to the corner of Dole and West Crystal Lake Avenues in Crystal Lake Sunday morning.

8 AM., 9:30 and 11.

Or, you can wait until I get home and post the picture.

My wife was kind enough to take this picture Saturday afternoon.

She observed that it was like Jesus was still in the tomb.
