I have not been here in TV very long, but I see these white crosses almost everywhere.
I don't know where you can get one, (I have one which I made myself), but I would not worry about deed restrictions. If it becomes a problem, just remove it. Welcome to The Villages.

Sorry for all the negative, snarky responses to your simple question. St. Timothy’s Church gave them out at one point. Not sure if they still do

I'd rather see neither...

didn't know there are deed restrictions re the Cross so it must also include magen (star of ) David, whatever muslims use ( schmitar ? ), etc,,, is this a general clause for ALL tv residences properties or just by district ?

All we need is faith. Love our neighbors.

It’s not your place to tell anyone how they should be able to display their faith. If someone has a problem with a small white cross, they are the problem

Call some nurseries or lawn ornament businesses.. I am sure they will have something like this available to put up for Easter. It’s your constitutional right to put up A small white cross if you choose. Deed restrictions do not trump the constitution of the United States

I believe they do in Florida.

If more and more put up white crosses .... does that make all non-Christians feel welcome? Or is the objective to make others feel unwelcome? I'm confused. Can we be Christians without the show on our front lawn?

I see little white crosses all over, I don't give them much thought.

[Bolsadd]

Welcome! I can determine by the responses you received that people have forgotten their manners. I’m not aware of any restrictions However if you go north on Morse pass 466/to Madero left, about a mile down on right. They were there two days ago

Check your deed restrictions. They vary by district. However, most have restrictions that limit lawn ornaments, which is what the cross will be considered. If you want to change that, get involved in your districts management or other group taking up such causes. But, IMHO, to sign a contract agreeing to them and then ignoring them is not a very Christian approach.

Amazon has them reasonably. Query small white cross, yard

And, the cross is not a Christian symbol anyway. It's pagan in origin.
