Jay Voorhees, pastor of Antioch United Methodist Church, transformed a cardboard box used to send bodies to crematoria into an altar.
He taped pictures of a crucified Jesus around the rim and placed a big cross atop, surrounding it with candles. The words, “It is finished,” hung to the side. Voorhees put a church pew a couple of feet in front of the altar for visitors to rest and face their mortality.
