The Crown of Thorns placed on Jesus’ head before the Crucifixion is said to have been made from stems of a Crown of Thorns (Euphorbia milii) plant, an evergreen with succulent branches. A Crown of Thorns bush is at the entrance of our Church building, on the left as you leave Church, behind a large Rhododendron. All parts of the plant are poisonous if ingested and its thorns are extremely sharp.
|
The Cross represents the wooden cross on which Jesus was crucified. This cross was made by Father Dan from dead branches of the Crown of Thorns bush.
|
The long Nails and Hammer represent those used to nail Jesus to the Cross.
