Description
Monastic Cross from Mount Athos
An authentic monastic handcrafted item from Mount Athos, symbolizing the profound and essential faith of man in the Lord. In every monastery, monks are assigned a task, a specific duty. One of the most common duties is the creation of handcrafted items, which are often sold to generate income for the restoration of cells and hermitages in Mount Athos that have been damaged by time.
The Cross: What it Symbolizes
It represents the greatest symbol of Christianity, sanctified and blessed through the sacrifice of Jesus, who was crucified to take upon Himself all our sins. A sacrifice of mercy, love, and compassion with the sole purpose of saving humanity. The cross is the most powerful amulet, which is why every prayer begins and ends with it. An authentic handcrafted item from Mount Athos can also be a wonderful gift for our loved ones, allowing them to always carry the blessing of Christ with them.
