The Letter to the Hebrews 13: 15-17, 20-21

13:15 Therefore, through him, let us offer the sacrifice of continual praise to God, which is the fruit of lips confessing his name.

13:16 But do not be willing to forget good works and fellowship. For God is deserving of such sacrifices.

13:17 Obey your leaders and be subject to them. For they watch over you, as if to render an account of your souls. So then, may they do this with joy, and not with grief. Otherwise, it would not be as helpful to you.

13:18 Pray for us. For we trust that we have a good conscience, being willing to conduct ourselves well in all things.

13:19 And I beg you, all the more, to do this, so that I may be quickly returned to you.

13:20 Then may the God of peace, who led back from the dead that great Pastor of sheep, our Lord Jesus Christ, with the blood of the eternal testament,

13:21 equip you with all goodness, so that you may do his will. May he accomplish in you whatever is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory forever and ever. Amen.

Gospel

The Holy Gospel According to Mark 6: 30-34

6:30 And the Apostles, returning to Jesus, reported to him everything that they had done and taught.

6:31 And he said to them, “Go out alone, into a deserted place, and rest for a little while.” For there were so many who were coming and going, that they did not even have time to eat.

6:32 And climbing into a boat, they went away to a deserted place alone.

6:33 And they saw them going away, and many knew about it. And together they ran by foot from all the cities, and they arrived before them.

6:34 And Jesus, going out, saw a great multitude. And he took pity on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began to teach them many things.
