according to St. Mark.
Response
:Glory to You, Oh Lord.
Mk2:13-17
Jesus went out along the sea. All the crowd came to him and
he taught them. As he passed by, he saw Levi, son of
Alphaeus, sitting at the customs post. Jesus said to him,
“Follow me.” And he got up and followed Jesus. While he was
at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners sat with
Jesus and his disciples; for there were many who followed
him. Some scribes who were Pharisees saw that Jesus was
eating with sinners and tax collectors and said to his
disciples, “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
Jesus heard this and said to them, “Those who are well do
not need a physician, but the sick do.
I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.”

we forgive those who trespass
against us; and lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from
evil. Amen.

Faithful perseverance in waiting for
you,
And a hope of finally embracing you.
