Passion Sunday Year B

L              “Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited… but humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death — even death on a cross.” (Philippians 2:5, 6, 8) Let us confess the ways we resist having the mind of Christ.

Silence is kept for confession and reflection

L              Have mercy on me, O LORD

C             Let your face shine upon your servant; save me in your steadfast love. (Psalm 31:9,16)

 L              …at the name of Jesus every knee will bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:10-11) It is the Lord GOD who helps me; who will declare me guilty? (Isaiah 50:9)
