title: ADVENTURE OF THE HOLY CROSS

subject date: 2017-09-10

caption: THE HOLY CROSS EXCELLENCE This feast of the Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church and other Christian confessions commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus by emphasizing the centrality of the mystery of the cross in Christian theology. The date recalls the finding of the True Cross (also known as the Latin Invention of the Cross) by Sant'Elena, which took place on September 14, 327, but with the passage of time the devotion was commemorated by the commemoration of the recovery by the 'Emperor Heraclius of a fragment of the True Cross from the hands of the Persians (also called the Triumph of the Cross), which took place in 628.
