Does anyone know where one can find rubrics to explain what to do with the
cross this Sunday?

There are plenty of web links to sermons that explain why it is done, but
nothing to say *what* is done, and none of the liturgical books in our parish
say a thing about it.

Don't know about rubrics, but what gets done in a lot of parishes is
you put it with the flowers into the refrigerator and bring it out for
the services coming next in this week. Some parishes will give away
the flowers.

And what really happens is that a Protestant so-called troll was the only one
who actually provided useful and timely information in the Orthodox
newsgroups.

The basics, yes.

It was the details that were missing, kindly supplied by "Pete".
