The Sign of the Cross
Adoration of the Trinity (The Landauer Altarpiece) — Albrecht Dürer, 1511Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, Austria  Dearly beloved, Christ suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow His steps who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth. Who when He was reviled, did not revile: when He suffered, He threatened not, but delivered Himself to him that judged Him unjustly: who His own self bore our sins in His body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice; by whose stripes you were healed. For you were as sheep going astray: but you are now converted to the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls. —I Peter 2:21-25Epistle, Good Shepherd Sunday (Tridentine Mass)
