ALTAR, BLESSING AND PECTORAL CROSSES
In this category you may find Eastern Orthodox and Catholic CROSSES: unique brass and nickel-plated altar, blessing and pectoral crosses. The hand cross is used in blessing and preaching and symbolizes the bishop's office of teaching and sanctifying his flock. The pectoral cross is worn around the neck, over the clothing by bishops and priests as a reminder that they should not merely carry Christ in their hearts, but also confess Him in the face of all men. |
