Carlos Estrada of rural Stryker created a large yard display near his home on Ohio 2 featuring a fifty-six-foot arrow, a cross draped with a purple cloth, colored poles, and stone pathways, which he presented as a spiritual guide pointing people to Jesus Christ. He said the arrow, appearing to have fallen from the sky and embedded at the foot of the cross, signified that Jesus is the single point of unity for believers despite the existence of many religions and denominations. The pathways and poles carried meanings tied to Christian belief: the red pole and straight path to the cross represented Christ shedding his blood, the blue pole represented baptism and life in Christ, the purple pole represented the Holy Spirit and royalty, and the poles carried changing scripture references meant to explain their meaning or encourage believers. Estrada, a first-generation American whose parents moved from Mexico to northwest Ohio in nineteen forty-three, grew up in Pettisville as one of ten children, graduated from Four County Joint Vocational School in nineteen seventy-two, worked many years at General Motors in Defiance, and later retired while continuing handyman work. He married Rafaela Murillo after meeting her in nineteen seventy-eight, and together they raised four children, homeschooled them, helped found Northwest Ohio Christian Home Educators, rebuilt their home and barn, built covered wagons, worked as professional historical reenactors, and designed a self-sustaining towable covered wagon used for extended travel. With only their youngest child still at home, the family turned to this yard art as a new way to reach others, expressing a hope that Christians would stand in what Estrada called God's truth and find unity in Jesus.
