Pardon their offences

I thought first that I would not post anything tonight, following the morning post on Our Lady of Sorrows and the first six Stations of the Cross. But having just offered Mass, I have realized that I should not deprive you of this illustration of the Gospel for today (https://universalis.com/mass.htm) by Jan Hearn.  
It depicts angry mob which wants to stone Jesus, people blind to the Light of the World, not aware of their sin.

So it is most fitting to add one of the collects for today which are contained in our Missal:

Pardon your the offences of your peoples,
we pray, O Lord,
and in your goodness set us free
from the bonds of our sins
we have committed in our weakness.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.


Amen.

By Fr Tomas
