Benedictine Cross

[Squips]

I just got my first blessed Benedictine (I believe that’s the proper term) Cross, and I figured it’d be good to learn a little more about the Cross. I’d like to know if there are any devotions specific to the Cross, what exactly it symbolizes, and any other interesting tidbits of information you guys may have. Thanks!

Here is a link to osb.org, that explains the medal or cross in more detail:

I wear a medal all of the time.
