I have stones at the church and each week the people are asked to pick up a stone and hold it during the service and then place it at the foot of a wooden cross placed at the front of the sanctuary.

    Witness is not something Christians are trained to do, but what naturally happens when Christ is truly abided in and His life is allowed to shine.
