Desert Christ Park

This Christian-themed park was opened in 1950 by Reverend Eddie Garver. The first statue was a 10-foot tall, 5-ton statue of Christ created by Frank Martin. Over the next 10 years he built over 30 statues for the park before his death in 1961. Although the park is still managed by the foundation it is showing signs of wear. Some may find it beautiful and some may find it unsettling - it all depends on your frame of reference.
