The sign of the Cross is a kind of synthesis of our faith ... it tells us that there is a love in this world that is stronger than death....The power of love is stronger than the evil which threatens us.

On the Cross, Jesus took upon Himself the weight of all the sufferings and injustices of our humanity. He bore the humiliation and the discrimination, the torture suffered in many parts of the world by so many of our brothers and sisters for love of Christ.

| The Cross |
| |
|
As Christians profess, it is through the Cross that Jesus in fact draws us into eternal life, and in so doing indicates to us the way ahead – the way of hope which guides every step we take along the way, so that we too become bearers of that hope and charity for others.

| The Cross |
| |
|
The Son of God became vulnerable, assuming the condition of a slave, obedient even to death, death on a cross. By His Cross we are saved.
The instrument of torture which on Good Friday manifested God's judgement on the world has become a source of life, pardon, mercy, a sign of reconciliation and peace... The Church invites us ... to give thanks to God because from a tree which brought death, life has burst out anew.

God is love and His love is the secret of our happiness.
To enter into this mystery of love there is no other way than that of losing ourselves, giving ourselves, the way of the Cross.
