I like that we think along the same wavelength. (although I forgot that the specific term was “true cross”. *chastises myself* Bad Catholic!) But when they said there was something written on the cloth I jokingly said, “Yeah, it says (*in deep chanty voice*)’This is the wood of The Cross, on which hung The Savior of the World.'” (Which is something the priest says as part of Good Friday services, for those who don’t know). Cuz, at that point, i didn’t think they were gonna go in that direction!

Honestly I got the term “True Cross” from doing a bit of preemptive google research. My Southern Pentecostal upbringing definitely didn’t give me that term.

I think we’re on the right track, though! The more I read about the True Cross versus other legendary wooden artifacts, the more it seems to me like that’s probably what it is!
