Why do we extend our arms when praying the Our Father and at other times during the Maronite anaphora?

Why do we stand in the Maronite Liturgy of the Offering?

We have posted an intervention from one of the Maronite Delegates for the the first Assembly of the Plenary Council for the Catholic Church in Australia on our website. Go to the link in our bio to read it.
Today we celebrate the feast of Mar Sarkis and Bakhos. They are well venerated in the Maronite Church and are seen as protectors and many Eastern churches have been dedicated to them.
The First Assembly for the Plenary Council for the Catholic Church in the Australia will begin on 3 October and close on 10 October. One of our Members is a delegate for the Maronite Church. Keep the delegates in your prayers.
This kookaburra leading one of us on our walk this morning. All of Creation knows and draws us to the salvation of the Cross.
13 September is the eve of the Feast of the Glorious Cross.
In this Season of Creation, Pope Francis, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby and Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew have issuesd “A Joint Message for the Protection of Creation”.
