The Giant Cross covered with oysters Appears on the Seashore

A wooden cross, about 6m long, covered with oysters, appeared on the beach near a hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA) has just been discovered by a tourist.

When Mr. Greg Gay discovered the crucifix floating in the sea, he did not hesitate to find a way to bring it to the shore with the help of many others. "I couldn't believe my eyes when the cross appeared right in front of us," he said. I find it wonderful. It's timely and magical. If we were there 10 minutes earlier or 10 minutes later, we probably wouldn't have seen it."

The image of the cross spread quickly, and attracted the attention of many visitors. A priest was present to bless and pray with the faithful right by the sea. Since being brought ashore, the mystery of the large cross that unexpectedly reached Florida's beach has been the subject of much debate.

There were many comments on the social media account of the hotel where the cross was discovered. Some consider it a sign of the apocalypse according to the Book of Revelation, others say that the crucifix drifted here after a storm, others note the time and location of this sacred object appearing as a sign. of God, a sign of protection…

Among the plausible theories to find the answer to this unexpected appearance, it is worth noting that the crucifix, which has been drifting at sea for a long time, may have belonged to a Church in Puerto Rico (a national sea area of ​​the United States), which was severely affected by Hurricane Maria in September 2017. The fact that there are many oysters on it shows that the cross has been "lost" for a very long time in the ocean.

No matter where it comes from, the giant cross is a blessing to the faithful. There is no official announcement yet, but it is likely that a local church will keep this "special gift" from the sea.
