Prayer for Our Soldiers
O God, almighty and most gracious,
help keep our men and women safe while
they are defending our freedom. Help them
fight with valor, serve with honor, and
come home when the fight is won. For
those who should fall to any harm, O Lord, please
watch over them so that they can return home to the
families who love them. In the dark of night and the
heat of battle, may our prayers—and your divine
love—give them comfort and protection. This we
pray, Amen.

February 5 Order forms are at the doors
of the church. Market Day is the food

January 25-Third Sunday in Ordinary TimeMark 1:14-20: The call of the apostles today is a
little different than we heard last week because each
comes from a different Gospel author. Here, in
Mark’s Gospel, Jesus invites his first apostles to
help him spread the Good News about God’s kingdom. Andrew, Simon, James and John leave their
fishing nets and follow Jesus. What’s the “good news”
we should believe in?
