On the front side, the Lord is depicted surrounded by four evangelists. With His right hand He blesses, in His left He holds the open book of the New Testament - the law of love, which He fulfilled with His life. The apostles Matthew, Mark, Luke and John the Theologian wrote down the teachings of Christ and left His biography.
The cross is a symbol of the four-part world united in Christ. The images of the evangelists depicted on its crossbars show a world enlightened by the Divine Word. In the center is a loving image of Christ, around which is written: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden.” 
The prayer: “God have mercy on me” is placed on the ear of the cross.
On the back is the Iveron Icon of the Mother of God. The Mother of God seems to point to the Infant of God, solemnly seated on Her left hand, as the Path of salvation, the living Truth and the source of eternal Life.
To the right of the Mother of God is St. Paisius Velichkovsky, Elder of Moldova. The first half of his life was a search for true monasticism, the second was a constant struggle for its establishment.
To the left of the Virgin Mary is the Roman saint Blessed Alexius. For his perfect Christian humility, during his lifetime he was called a man of God. The saint left his family, the world, renounced not only his property, but even his own mind, taking upon himself the feat of foolishness, and dedicated every minute of his life to God.
