Mini Jerusalem Cross/Kairos Pendant in Sterling Silver, 11mm or .4"

Our mini Jerusalem Cross/Kairos pendant is hand-cast in sterling silver and measures 11mm (a little smaller than a dime).

The Jerusalem Cross, also known as the "Five-Fold Cross," is said to represent the five wounds of Christ and also the four evangelists, or Christ and the four quarters of the world. The Jerusalem Cross is also the symbol used for Kairos, an ancient Greek word meaning "a time when conditions are right for the accomplishment of a crucial action: the opportune and decisive moment." Rooted in the Ignatian, Catholic tradition, many Catholic high schools, and universities offer Kairos retreats as a time to allow young adults to reflect on their relationship with God, self, and others. The four crosses symbolize the motto of the retreat "Live the fourth," to encourage living out the promises made on the fourth and final day of the retreat.
