In 2018, the Church of the Exaltation of the Holy and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord was consecrated in St. Petersburg after completion of construction. This book tells not only about the newly built church, but also about the Life-Giving Cross of the Lord itself, which became the instrument of our salvation. What is the history of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross—one of the twelve major feasts of the Russian Orthodox Church? What is known about the Cross—the instrument of painful execution and the instrument of salvation for mankind? How do the four evangelists and the "fifth Gospel"—the Shroud of Turin—testify about the crucifixion of our Lord Jesus Christ and His Resurrection? What did the Holy Fathers think about the hidden mystery of the Cross of the Lord? The first, historical part of the book tells how the Cross of Christ has been venerated in Rus' since ancient times. In the second part, the reader learns about the construction of the Church of the Exaltation of the Cross in the city on the Neva, about the influence of Divine Providence on the fates of the church's builders and on such a complex undertaking as church construction, as well as about parish life.
