The Exaltation of the Holy Cross, celebrated on September 14, is a significant feast in the Christian tradition that honors the Cross of Jesus Christ. It commemorates the discovery of the True Cross by Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine, in the 4th century. This feast reminds Christians of the redemptive power of Christ’s sacrifice, where His death on the cross brought salvation to humanity. The cross, once a symbol of suffering and shame, is now exalted as a sign of victory, hope, and love. The Exaltation of the Holy Cross calls believers to embrace the cross in their own lives, finding strength and grace in the midst of challenges.
