The Great Cross

The great cross was erected at the direction of Archbishop Joseph P. Hurley, then Bishop of the Diocese of St. Augustine.  His Excellency Casimiro Morcillo, Archbishop of Madrid, dedicated it during the diocesan Eucharistic Congress of October 1966.  Like the Prince of Peace Church, the Great Cross celebrates the 400th anniversary of Nombre de Dios and the City of St. Augustine.  This picture was taken in June 2010 from the grounds of Ponce de Leon's Fountain of Youth.  More to follow on the Great Cross.
