10" Wood and Brass Holy Spirit Wall Cross with Centered Pewter Dove

10" x 5" wood and polished brass confirmation wall cross with centered pewter ascending dove. Along with the centered pewter ascending dove over the sun, is the engraved phrase "Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit" with the seven gifts engraved on the rays of the sun (Fear of the Lord, Piety, Counsel, Understanding, Knowledge, Wisdom, Fortitude). The dove is the symbol of the Holy Spirit. When Christ was baptized by John the Baptist, a dove descended on him, according Matthew 3:16 and Mark 1:10. The ascending dove is a symbol of resurrection, innocence, and peace. The dove is sometimes depicted with an olive branch in its mouth as a symbol of peace. It also symbolizes God's grace. Back of the wall cross has a key hole for hanging. Comes boxed.
