wooden hand-cross Item Info

To the right of the Tabernacle sits a wooden hand-cross. This one is carved out of linden wood, and on two sides. It was carved for Father Roman Dusanowskyj, the parish’s current priest. This cross was carved in Lviv, Ukraine by a seminarian as gift for Fr. Roman. The carvings depict the crucified Christ on one side, and the Mother of Sorrows on the other. Two red cloths, purificators also sit on the altar. A communion spoon from the parish’s earliest years. The spoon is decorated with an anchor-cross – so it is likely that it was made specifically for the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Parish in Sydney, NS.
