Cross – What it symbolizes:

The cross is the most well-known and powerful symbol of Christianity. It was sanctified and blessed through the sacrifice of Jesus, who was crucified to take upon Himself all the sins. A sacrifice of love and mercy with the sole purpose of saving humanity. The cross is the strongest amulet for all Christians, which is why every prayer we make begins and ends with the cross. An authentic monastic handicraft, it can also serve as a beautiful gift for our loved ones, so they always carry with them the blessing of Christ.
