In the photo, Corbin District Superintendent Terry Faris, has given both of them crosses made from lumber (natural purple color) brought back from Costa Rica by the Youth Mission Team from the Covenant UMC in La Grange, Ky. The wooden crosses were made by Mark and Alan Mercurio, the sons of the late Don Mercurio, who began the "Cross Making Ministry" that has already blessed so many people in the Corbin District.
