A wooden holding cross for prayer and for remembering a special day

A cross like this fits in the palm of your hand, in a pocket or on the bedside table, and keeps company with the prayers of whoever receives it. It measures about 5 cm, it is made of wood, and we personalise it with a name, a date or a few words, laser engraved or printed in colour. Our wooden holding cross is very popular as a communion keepsake and as a memento of spiritual retreats.

A communion keepsake to carry everywhere

At a First Communion, each guest can take home a personalised pocket cross with the name of the child making their communion and the date of the day. It is a simple communion keepsake with a clear religious meaning, later kept in a coat pocket, in a rucksack or beside the bed. For the child who has just received their first communion, a wooden holding cross is a way to keep the cross close when they pray.

A memento for retreats and shared days

At the end of a spiritual retreat or a few days together, a personalised pocket cross with the name of the gathering and the date helps everyone remember what they lived as a group. Pocket crosses are easy to hand out to each participant, and each person can keep using theirs in their daily prayers.

Two shapes: Pocket Cross and Heart Cross

The Pocket Cross has rounded shapes and sits comfortably in the palm of the hand. The Heart Cross has straighter lines, and in the photos you can see it with a heart and initials in the centre. Both are made of natural wood, with the grain showing.

Engraved in wood or printed in colour

You write the text and choose the lettering, or you send us a file with the drawing you want. With laser engraving, the text comes out in a toasted tone on the wood, sober and very legible; with colour printing there is room for illustrations such as a dove, a chalice or flames. You can also personalise the back, for example with the date or a phrase such as “Grace and peace”.

You will find more keepsakes for the celebration in our collection of baptism and communion gifts.

Frequently asked questions

What can go on a personalised pocket cross?

A name, a date, initials or a short phrase, and also a drawing if you send us the file. You can personalise the front and, if you like, the back.

What is the difference between engraving and colour printing?

Laser engraving marks the wood in a single tone and gives a sober finish. Colour printing lets you add illustrations and colours, like the communion designs you see in the photos.

Is it a good communion keepsake for the children who attend?

Yes. It is small, light and clearly religious, so each child can take home their own personalised pocket cross with the name of the child making their communion and the date.

Which wooden holding cross should I choose for a retreat?

Both shapes work. The rounded Pocket Cross is the most comfortable to cradle in the hand during prayer; the Heart Cross, with its straight lines, goes well with a symbol and initials.
