Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written. John 21:25

An aluminum and metal cross that features the handprints of the St. Andrew's, Barrie, congregation was created by local gold and silversmith Don Stuart. The cross is a celebration of the 50th wedding anniversary of St. Andrew's members, Arch and Helen Brown. It was Mr. Brown who first approached Stuart — both of whom are recipients of the Order of Canada — to create something special for the occasion. The cross stands at eight feet tall, is five feet wide and weighs 100 pounds. The 226 hands are cut from bronze, copper and aluminum, and Stuart estimates that construction took about 225 hours. Stuart, founder of Georgian College's jewelry and metals program, also completed a piece for Rosedale Presbyterian, Toronto.
