Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
In Barre, Massachusetts there’s the giant words “God’s Wisdom” written on the ground. To the north is a large cross which looks like it might be drawn using white rocks and further north a building which I’m assuming is a church.

They must have been anticipating this, or else they wouldn’t have written “2005 Google” all of the place
Yeah, the letters are white gravel with trees growing there, and it was built and maintained by a church. I used to life just to the east of there, as I mentioned when I sent you a link to that several months ago…
Great thinking carl
JBrandt,
Apologies, your link must have got lost in the post somewhere as it’s not in our submissions database.
I don’t believe that the building is a church. It is the house of the guy who built this, (unless he started a church). This appears in the book about Worcester County. I drove out there and spoke to the guy who built this. He told me that he had a vision one night and recieved a message telling him to do this. He told his neighbors that he was building a runway for model airplanes, at first. He told me his kids (this was about 8yrs ago) stopped talking to him when he told them what he was doing. He said, he had to do it anyway. He claims that some people have claimed to be healed while visiting. He seemed to me to be a level headed guy when I talked to him. You should go see this in person.
I believe this man was inspired by God to do this. Praise God! to the artist rememberphilippians 4-13 “I can do all things through Christ who stregnthens me” I am looling foreward to visiting the site soon

I’ve visited the cross twice in the last month, once to just to see it, when i’d heard about it, the second time to pray for a friend. John, is quite the insprition along with his granddaughter who was there that day. What a remarkable little girl she was, and quite a pleasure to be around
I live there and it is not a church, in fact, there is no religious affiliation whatever. That’s the point , we don’t need religion, we only need to LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF.
