There they crucified him... (From John 18:1-19:42)

For you...for me...for the immigrant...for the refugee...for the migrant worker...for the man/woman/child born in America or Mexico or China or Russia or Germany or Africa...for the one who is rich...for the one who receives government aid...for the Republican...for the Democrat...for the communist...for the Marxist...for the Libertarian...for George Floyd...for Derek Chauvin...for the drug addict...for the one on death row...for all members of the LGBTQ community...for the one who has turned their back on you...for the one you’ve turned your back on...for the one who mocks you for getting a shot and wearing a mask...for the one who mocks you for not getting a shot and not wearing a mask...for Donald Trump...for Joe Biden...for people of all races and all ethnicities...for Christians of every denomination...for Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, Atheists, those struggling to believe, our Jewish sisters and brothers...for US ALL!  Jesus suffered and died so that we may be made free of sin and so that we may have eternal life!  This is why this Friday of his suffering is called “good!”  It is “good” because His love, mercy, compassion, and His life has been poured out for you!  Make it a “good” Friday and a “good” life by putting to death the sin of your life and by loving others as He has loved us ALL!  Amen!
