Celtic Cross

Refurbished Celtic Cross that stood atop the Presentation Convent bell tower

The Celtic Cross is a rich symbol that reflects both Christian and Celtic traditions. The cross itself symbolizes the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, representing his sacrifice and redemption for humanity as well as the eternal hope of salvation through His Resurrection. The ring surrounding the cross is often interpreted as representing the sun, eternity, or the halo of Christ, signifying God’s everlasting love and the eternal nature of the Christian faith. This sculpture stood atop the Presentation Convent bell tower.

Now, the Celtic Cross greets visitors to Presentation Peace Circle
