On Good Friday, we come face to face with the cross. We will venerate the wood of the cross, not as a symbol of defeat, but as the place where sin and death are conquered. In that solemn moment, we remember that Christ freely embraced suffering for our sake, and we bring to that cross all the suffering of our world, trusting that none of it is beyond His redeeming love.
~ Fr. Adam Patras, OSB
