About the Sign of the Cross
The Sign of the Cross is one of the most fundamental gestures in Catholic prayer and worship. It serves as both a blessing and a prayer in itself, invoking the Holy Trinity and recalling Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
When Catholics make the Sign of the Cross, they touch their forehead at "Father," their chest at "Son," and their left and right shoulders at "Holy Spirit." This physical movement, combined with the spoken prayer, engages both body and mind in this act of faith.
This simple yet profound gesture dates back to the earliest days of Christianity and is used to begin and end prayers, during Mass, when entering a church, and in times of blessing or danger. It expresses our belief in the Trinity and affirms our baptism into Christ's death and resurrection.
