John 19:33 – But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was dead already, they did not break His legs. However, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out… For these things happened so that the Scripture should be fulfilled, “Not one of His bones shall be broken.”

Today we mourn Christ’s suffering, crucifixion and death. Out of love for us God sent His only Son to die on the cross for our sins so that we might be saved.
