Additional Prayers

A Prayer of Acclamation and Thanksgiving

Lord Jesus Christ, you were despised and rejected, a man of suffering and familiar with pain. You were willing to be mocked and maimed for us. You took into yourself all our evil, maximum evil, terrible evil—all for us and our salvation. We give you humble thanks. Amen.

— Cornelius Plantinga, Jr.
