Readings

1st Amos 7:12-15 - Amos explains that he didn't decide to be a prophet by himself, but that he did what God told him to do, even though the establishment didn't want him there.

Psalm 84:  Let us see, O Lord, your mercy and give us your saving help / I will hear what the Lord will say / Mercy and faithfulness have met / The Lord will make us prosper

2nd - Ephesians 1:3-14 - a poetic description of the beautiful way God deals with us - God chose us as His own.

Gospel - Mark 6:7-13 -  Jesus sends the disciples out in pairs, taking nothing with them, to preach repentance and to heal  — in the same way that the prophets did of old.
