San Marino

1983

We had a wonderful crosswalk in the little nation of San Marino in the heart of Italy.

Here one of the famous ‘Formula One’ road races takes place each year. I carried the cross part of the way on the actual road where the race is run.

SanMarino5My son, Joel was with me on the walk with the cross in Italy and San Marino. He drove and I walked with the cross.

One would not expect it here, but the police arrested us! In the heart of the city Joel was walking with me. The police came and took us to the police station. They put the cross in the jail and questioned us. After a while and after they saw photos of the
cross being carried around the world they smiled and let us go. I had the wonderful privilege of carrying the cross ‘out’ of jail.

We talked with some people in this little nation and sought to be a good witness for Jesus.
