Spotkania poprowadzi ks Łukasz Kleczka SDS The Story of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross Early in the fourth century, Saint Helena, mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine, went to Jerusalem in search of the holy places of Christ s life. She razed the second-century Temple of Aphrodite, which tradition held was built over the Savior s tomb, and her son built the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher on that spot. During the excavation, workers found three crosses. Legend has it that the one on which Jesus died was identified when its touch healed a dying woman.the cross immediately became an object of veneration. At a Good Friday celebration in Jerusalem toward the end of the fourth century, according to an eyewitness, the wood was taken out of its silver container and placed on a table together with the inscription Pilate ordered placed above Jesus head: Then all the people pass through one by one; all of them bow down, touching the cross and the inscription, first with their foreheads, then with their eyes; and, after kissing the cross, they move on. To this day, the Eastern Churches, Catholic and Orthodox alike, celebrate the Exaltation of the Holy Cross on the September anniversary of the basilica s dedication. The feast entered the Western calendar in the seventh century after Emperor Heraclius recovered the cross from the Persians, who had carried it off in 614, 15 years earlier. According to the story, the emperor intended to carry the cross back into Jerusalem himself, but was unable to move forward until he took off his imperial garb and became a barefoot pilgrim.the cross is today the universal image of Christian belief. Countless generations of artists have turned it into a thing of beauty to be carried in procession or worn as jewelry. To the eyes of the first Christians, it had no beauty. It stood outside too many city walls, decorated only with decaying corpses, as a threat to anyone who defied Rome s authority including Christians who refused sacrifice to Roman gods. Although believers spoke of the cross as the instrument of salvation, it seldom appeared in Christian art unless disguised as an anchor or the Chi- Rho until after Constantine s edict of toleration. Prosimy o pomoc i wsparcie edukacji ks. Marcina Zielińskiego Ksiądz Marcin, który nam pomaga w czasie wakacji, za tydzień 16 września wraca do Polski, aby kontynuować edukację.

Dlatego po Każdej Mszy Świętej będzie można okazać mu swoje wsparcie składając ks. Marcinowi do koszyka pod chórem ofiarę na studia i dalszą edukację. Bóg zapłać za wszelką życzliwość i dobre serce!

5 Święto Podwyższenia Krzyża obchodzi Kościół katolicki 14 września. Wiąże się ono z odnalezieniem drzewa krzyża, na którym umarł Jezus Chrystus a także wyraża głęboki sens krzyża w życiu chrześcijanina. Istotą święta jest ukazanie tajemnicy Krzyża jako ceny zbawienia człowieka. Początki święta związane są z odnalezieniem przez św. Helenę relikwii krzyża na początku IV wieku i poświęceniem w Jerozolimie bazyliki ku jego czci w 335 r. Na pamiątkę, tego wydarzenia, ostatecznie 14 września, w Kościele obchodzi się uroczystość Podwyższenia Krzyża świętego. Od czasów Konstantyna, kiedy to chrześcijanie uzyskali wolność wyznawania swojej wiary krzyż stał się znakiem rozpoznawczym chrześcijan. Od tego czasu jest bardzo często używany w liturgii i uświęca całe życie chrześcijańskie: zaczyna i kończy modlitwę, dzień i każdą ważniejszą czynność, uświęca przestrzeń i jest używany przy wszelkich błogosławieństwach. Ojcowie Kościoła podkreślali, że krzyż jest symbolem, w którym streszczają się najistotniejsze prawdy wiary chrześcijańskiej. Św. Jan Damasceński pisze: "Krzyż Pana naszego Jezusa Chrystusa, a nie cokolwiek innego, zwyciężył śmierć, zgładził grzech praojca, pokonał piekło, darował nam zmartwychwstanie, udzielił siły do wzniesienia się ponad doczesność i ponad samą śmierć, zgotował powrót do dawnej szczęśliwości, otworzył bramy raju, umieścił naturę naszą po prawicy Boga, uczynił nas Jego dziećmi i dziedzicami". Znak krzyża rozpoczyna i kończy modlitwę chrześcijanina. W liturgii jest gestem błogosławieństwa. Krzyż zawieszany na szyi, w mieszkaniu, w pracy, stawiany na szczytach świątyń przypomina wierzącym o ich powołaniu. Jego znaczenie staje się szkołą życia dla chrześcijan widzących w nim ostateczne zwycię- INTENCJE MSZALNE Ksiądz Marcin Zieliński, który pomaga nam w czasie wakacji jest studentem Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego na dwóch kierunkach: prawo cywilne i prawo kanoniczne. Codziennie ma możliwość odprawiania Mszy świętych w kościele w Lublinie. Jeśli ktoś miałby życzenie poprosić go o odprawienie Mszy Świętej, bardzo proszę złożyć intencje bezpośrednio u niego, do 16 września włącznie. Za wszelką pomoc okazaną księdzu Marcinowi składamy serdeczne Bóg zapłać. Please Support Fr.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity. God bless you all! La festa dell'esaltazione della Croce L'Esaltazione della Santa Croce è una festività della Chiesa cattolica, della Chiesa ortodossa e di altre confessioni cristiane. In essa si commemora la crocifissione di Gesù con il particolare obiettivo di sottolineare la centralità del mistero della croce nella teologia cristiana. Il termine "esaltazione", in uso sin dal VI secolo per indicare questo rito, è da intendersi sia come «innalzamento» sia come «ostensione». Il termine nasce dal rito che prevedeva l innalzamento di una croce e la sua ostensione ai fedeli, in ricordo dell innalzamento di Cristo sulla Croce e dell ostensione del suo corpo sacrificale. Nella celebrazione eucaristica il colore liturgico è il rosso, il colore della passione di Gesù, che richiama appunto la Santa Croce. La festività ricorre il 14 settembre, in ricordo del ritrovamento della vera croce di Gesù da parte di sant'elena, avvenuto, secondo una tradizione, il 14 settembre del 327: in quel giorno la reliquia sarebbe stata innalzata dal vescovo di Gerusalemme di fronte al popolo, che fu invitato all'adorazione del Crocefisso. Nell'usanza gallicana, invece, almeno a partire dal VII secolo, la festa della Croce si teneva il 3 maggio, data del ritrovamento della Croce secondo la "leggenda di Giuda Ciriaco".
