Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
After these things, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, though a secret one because of his fear of the Jews, asked Pilate to let him take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission; so he came and removed his body. Nicodemus, who had at first come to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, weighing about a hundred pounds. They took the body of Jesus and wrapped it with the spices in linen cloths, according to the burial custom of the Jews. Now there was a garden in the place where he was crucified, and in the garden there was a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid. And so, because it was the Jewish day of Preparation, and the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.[John 19:38-42, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
When Good Friday comes, these are the moments in life when we feel there's no hope. But then, Easter comes.[Coretta Scott King]
Pray Together with Us:
Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commend my spirit."[Luke 23:46]
