When Jesus was put on the cross to die,
his punishment was intended to humiliate him and his followers and to
extinguish his message once and for all. But that didn’t happen.
Instead, he rose from the dead, exalted by the Father, and his Good News
has been shared on every continent for more than 2,000 years. Today,
crosses grace our churches and homes. We even wear crosses as jewelry that
identifies us as believers. The name of this feast says it well: The
cross is a sign of exaltation. When you rise in the morning and
retire at night, make the sign of the cross.
