Prayer
O Jesus Christ Crucified,
I choose you this day as
my Savior and Lord.
I take up my cross and
follow you,
uniting myself to your Passion
and work of redemption.
I surrender myself
completely to you.
Use my life to extend the
triumph of your Cross
Amen.

Exaltation of the Holy Cross
“When I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself, says the Lord"
Reflections by Father Paul Beukes OMI
On this day when we celebrate this Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, we are called to let the eyes of our heart fall upon the sacrifice of the cross in order that we might realize the depth and the power of Christ’s love for each one of us.
The cross calls us, to allow that love to sink into our own hearts so that we might abandon all that is petty and self-centered and instead work for unity in peace.
