The Season of the Holy Cross
This season, which is the final season of the Liturgical year, is the Season of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. It begins on 14 September and lasts for seven weeks ending the liturgical calendar in the Maronite Church.
During this season we reflect on the meaning of the cross and we are reminded that the cross is a bridge from death to life. We contemplate on the salvation gift hat Jesus has given us in his suffering, death and resurrection.
Through the cross we are offered forgiveness and we are saved and. If we want to grow in our love for God, we must grow in understanding the significance of the cross.
The Season of the Exaltation of the Glorious Cross in the Maronite Rite is a time of profound spiritual significance for Maronite Catholics, as it allows us to deepen our faith and devotion to the Cross of Christ, recognising it as a source of our salvation and the central focus of our Christian identity.
