This week, I`m presenting images from Lithuania.
They were taken by a friend of my client Villija, who just returned from there with her daughter Kendra.
All I know about this mount of crosses is that under Soviet rule, no displays of a religious nature were allowed.
If a cross was put up to commemorate the death of a loved one, the authorities smashed it down.
The Lithuanians then began to bring their crosses to this remote area, & a tradition began & more & more crosses were erected till this is what it is now.
Villija & Kendra were there to bring clothing & necessities to babies in an orphanage there that they collected through a network here in the US.
Here is the
