September 14th – Feast Day of the Elevation of the Holy Cross of Jesus Christ (630 A.D.)

This Feast Day is one of the most important celebrations of the Orthodox Church.  It is on this day that we pay special tribute to the Precious Life-giving Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The first emperor of the Roman Empire to become a Christian was Constantine the Great .  Before the final battle which brought him to victory over his enemies and absolute rule of the entire Roman Empire , he saw a beautiful vision in the sky above the battlefield.  It was a vision of the Christian Cross .  Below the Cross were the words En Touto Nika which means “In this sign conquer.”
