The AAC celebrates the finding of the Life-Giving Tree of the Lord's Cross This is one of four feasts dedicated to the Messiah Tree, established to commemorate the discovery of the Life-Giving Tree of the Lord's Cross. In 326, the Empress Helena, the mother of the Byzantine Emperor Constantine, went to Jerusalem with the intention of finding the wood of the cross of Jesus. Golgotha, the place of Jesus' crucifixion, became a dump at this point out of contempt for Christians. The old Jew Yehuda indicated the burial place of the Holy Cross. But during the excavations three crosses were found. To identify the wood of the Savior's cross, they began to place the body of the deceased young man on the crosses one by one. The young man was resurrected the moment he was placed on the tree of Christ's cross. After this miracle, the Jew converted to Christianity, and his name was Bishop Cyril. So Empress Helena improved the holy places of Jerusalem and built the Church of St. Resurrection, where the life-giving tree of the Holy Cross was later erected. The AAC celebrates the Finding of the Cross on Sunday, October 23-29. Subscribe to Alpha News VK Zen Website TikTok Facebook Instagram YouTube X.
