TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — An American man, who has carried his 12-foot wooden cross
across the world many times over the course of 32 years, added Taiwan to the over 200 countries he had journeyed to, having just completed a two-week trek of the country on Nov.4.
The man, Keith Wheeler, who currently lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma, has carried the 90-pound cross over 24,000 miles over the course of three decades. His travels have taken him from places as far flung as Tibet, Samoa, Iran, and even Antarctica.
In 1985, Wheeler says that God spoke to him and told him to carry the cross to through the streets of Tulsa. He then felt God tell him to “take the cross and identify that message of love along the roadsides of this world.” [FULL STORY]
