Cross is built to serve church

A few weeks before Easter of this year, Robert Cline, r 1 Milford, decided he could better serve his church, the Milford United Methodist Church. As a result, a new cross, handbuilt by Cline, now hangs in the sanctuary. Cline, who has been a member of the church for six years, says, "I just knew it needed something. Sometimes we can't afford to give monetarily/ We have to give in some'other way. That was my effort." The cross, measuring four feet by six feet, took him two weeks to make. "I've probably spent more time on that than everything I've ever made," he commented. "That has to be one of the finer things I've .ever made, most special." The wood used in making the cross came from an old walnut tree from the Dean Cousin's farm, outside of Milford. The Cousin family also belongs to the United Methodist Church in Milford. Cline said Cousins became interested in his project and donated the wdod. To build the cross, Cline used hand tools and a hand finish. The regular church-goer said his building of the cross was primarily done as a service to the church and community. "Nothing lasts forever, but it will last for awhile." , This is the second item Cline, who builds homes for Heritage Homes, has built for the church. The first was a kheeling stand constructed several years ago. This he made per a request from a bride-to-be.

As far as other services he can render for his church, Cline said he hopes to be able to do something with the lighting. He is also helping with the current rennovcftion in the church sanctuary and kitchen. The former Milford Junior High industrial arts teacher feels the church and its service is very important to the community. He, himself, comes from a very churchorientated family. He said, "It's kind of a thing I carry on. Not because of tradition. Because I enjoy

it." Cline, who has lived in Milford for six years, coming from Huntington, is the present lay leader of the church. He is also a past president of the Milford Lions Club. In describing his contribution of the cross, he said, "It's sojnething to help beautify the church a little bit." An inability to stay quiet... is one of the most conspicuous failings of mankind. —Walter Bagehot
