Celebration Church pastor Nathan Shaw said uncertainty around Covid-19 regulations meant the event was in doubt until Thursday, when it was decided to go ahead.
A cross was hastily constructed out of wood sourced from Mr Shaw’s father’s property and news of the event was spread through word of mouth.
About 18 people were on hand to steward the cross on a circuit around Mosgiel, which started and finished at the Mosgiel Library.
The procession stopped at four stations along the route for prayer, scripture and song.
Events such as the Walk of the Cross were extremely important to mark the Easter season and the symbol of the cross was the "centrepiece of Christianity", Mr Shaw said.
"We live in a society now which doesn’t even really even always know the message of the cross in the gospel.
"The thing about Easter and the cross is that Jesus did what we couldn’t do, and that’s what the power of the message is."
The re-enactment symbolises Christ’s carrying of the cross to the site of his crucifixion, which Christians mark on Good Friday. They believe he rose again on the third day.
