Amen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Office Readings For Year 1<\/strong><br \/>\nA Reading from the Book of Jeremiah (JEREMIAH 1:1-10)<br \/>\nThe words of Jeremiah, the son of Hilki&#8217;ah, of the priests who were in An&#8217;athoth in the land of Benjamin, to whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josi&#8217;ah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. It came also in the days of Jehoi&#8217;akim the son of Josi&#8217;ah, king of Judah, and until the end of the eleventh year of Zedeki&#8217;ah, the son of Josi&#8217;ah, king of Judah, until the captivity of Jerusalem in the fifth month. Now the word of the LORD came to me saying, \u201cBefore I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.\u201d Then I said, \u201cAh, Lord GOD! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth.\u201d But the LORD said to me, \u201cDo not say, \u2018I am only a youth\u2019;<br \/>\nfor to all to whom I send you you shall go, and whatever I command you you shall speak. Be not afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, says the LORD.\u201d Then the LORD put forth his hand and touched my mouth; and the LORD said to me, \u201cBehold, I have put my words in your mouth. See, I have set you this day over nations and over kingdoms, to pluck up and to break down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.\u201d<br \/>\nThe Reader concludes The Word of the Lord.<\/p>\n<p>A Reading from the First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians (1 CORINTHIANS 3:11-23)<br \/>\nNo other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw &#8212; each man\u2019s work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. If any man\u2019s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire. Do you not know that you are God\u2019s temple and that God\u2019s Spirit dwells in you? If any one destroys God\u2019s temple, God will destroy him. For God&#8217;s temple is holy, and that temple you are. Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, \u201cHe catches the wise in their craftiness,\u201d and again, \u201cThe Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.\u201d So let no one boast of men. For all things are yours, whether Paul or Apol&#8217;los or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future, all are yours; and you are Christ\u2019s; and Christ is God\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>A Reading from the Gospel according to Mark (MARK 3:31-4:9)<br \/>\nJesus\u2019 mother and his brothers came; and standing outside they sent to him and called him. And a crowd was sitting about him; and they said to him, \u201cYour mother and your brothers are outside, asking for you.\u201d And he replied, \u201cWho are my mother and my brothers?\u201d And looking around on those who sat about him, he said, \u201cHere are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does the will of God is my brother, and sister, and mother.\u201d Again he began to teach beside the sea. And a very large crowd gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land. And he taught them many things in parables, and in his teaching he said to them: \u201cListen! A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil; and when the sun rose it was scorched, and since it had no root it withered away. Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain. And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.\u201d And he said, \u201cHe who has ears to hear, let him hear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coming Events at Good Shepherd<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sundays in Lent<\/strong><br \/>\n5:00 PM Stations of the Cross (5PM Saturday)<br \/>\n7:40 AM Morning
