EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the Second World War, on the fateful night of September 5, 1940, a bomb dropped by the relentless Nazi air raids destroyed a London suburb church, leaving behind a trail of devastation. Amidst the rubble and chaos, an iconic moment of resilience and determination unfolded as community members, dressed in suits and hats, worked tirelessly to save the processional cross from the wreckage. The cross, a symbol of faith and hope, had survived the blast, but was precariously perched atop a pile of bricks, stones, and piles of debris. With the help of a makeshift crane made from a boiler and tin sheets, the determined rescuers carefully maneuvered the damaged but still beautiful cross to safety. This historical image, captured during the darkest days of the Blitz, stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the British people in the face of adversity. The cross, now a cherished relic, continues to inspire generations with its story of survival and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
