Easter cross has a lot of significance for the Christian community.

A cross symbolizes the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, reminding us of the blood that Jesus had shed in lieu of the sins committed by mankind.

It is a sacred symbol that signifies faith.

An empty Easter symbol cross, on the other hand, is indicative of the resurrection of Lord Jesus that represents the triumph of goodness over evil spirit and life over death. Thus this symbol of Easter, cross is indicative of both crucifixion and resurrection.

If on one hand, it signifies sacrifice, and then on the other hand, it is a symbol of new life.

Lord ! May your sacrifice and new life strengthen us as we go forward !
