Several years ago, I read about a Croatian wedding tradition.
It moved me and gave me a deeper understanding of marriage, the Sacrament of Matrimony.
I’d like to share an article that describes this tradition and its fruit.

Sacramentals
Throughout the centuries, the testimony of many Christians, including a number of saints, confirms that objects blessed by a priest, through the power of the Church’s intercession, can repel demonic powers. Again and again, evil spirits have recoiled in dread, not just from the Sign of the Cross, but also from holy water and blessed oil, crosses, crucifixes, medals, candles, or salt (Manual for Spiritual Warfare, 55).
In a previous post, Spiritual Warfare, I mentioned that sacramentals provide protection from the devil.
Someone close to me suggested that I write a post on these valuable weapons.
In honor of Saint Benedict of Nursia, a champion in spiritual warfare whose feast we celebrate today, here’s a post dedicated to sacramentals.

Since there are so many great quotes, I want to share some.
Here are 13 quotes on the cross!
