The second venture designed to esteem Jesus Christ, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Prince of Peace and Almighty God, is a special tribute in the form of a beautiful garden sponsored by all of the participants in Global Ventures For Christ. Being named in His honor, It will be called The Prince of Peace Memorial Gardens. This will be a concrete, visible, tangible expression of the devotion and honor paid to Jesus by His numerous followers.
In this strife-driven, war-torn world, it is most appropriate that the followers of Jesus erect in honor of Him a monument which would call attention to His character and ministry with emphasis on His teachings concerning peace. It would be most appropriate for this monument to take the form of a Tribute featuring the world's most beautiful flowers as well as shrubbery and trees. Olive trees, grape vineyards, fig trees, pomegranates, cedars from Lebanon and many other plants mentioned in the Bible will be included. There will also be fountains and streams flowing throughout the garden.
Impressive engravings of the Lord's principles of peace will be prominently displayed midst the plants and flowers throughout the garden.
In addition, various structures will be designed and built following the patterns of the finest scholars who have knowledge of the types of buildings which Jesus knew in His day. The Inn and grotto where Jesus was born, His home in Nazareth with the carpenter's shop, the home in Cana where Jesus performed His first miracle, the home of Mary, Martha and Lazaras, the home in Jerusalem with the upper room and possibly other locations will be featured and interspersed in prominent locations about the garden. A very realistic display of Calvary with the three crosses will be prominently located along with the empty tomb. All of us together can make this a fantastic memorial and beautiful site which will draw many visitors from around the world to see it.
Publicity and word of mouth testimonies will spread the fame of this beautiful tribute to Jesus. As people give their attention and admiration to the garden, the principles of peace which Jesus set forth will be publicized. The garden
with its beauty accompanied by beautiful music and other programs offered from time to time can be a really impressive witness for the Lord. Without a doubt one of the most impressive ways to esteem Jesus Christ is to allow His own works to praise Him. A Center for Global Ventures For Christ with a Christian Museum will be located in close proximity to the garden.
A beautiful site, which lends itself to this kind of development with easy access to the public, has been temporarily selected. It is located in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex but must not be revealed at this time. To do that would cause the price of the property to be escalated.
World renown landscape architects and horticulturalists will be selected to help design and oversee the construction of the garden.
