Gospel: Mark 1:14-20
14 Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of God's Kingdom,
15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and God's Kingdom is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News."
16 Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men."
18 Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 Going on a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.

1 Samuel 1:1-8
1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the hill country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.
2 He had two wives. The name of one was Hannah, and the name of other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
3 This man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to the LORD* of Armies in Shiloh. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to the LORD, were there.
4 When the day came that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions;
5 but to Hannah he gave a double portion, for he loved Hannah, but the LORD had shut up her womb.
6 Her rival provoked her severely, to irritate her, because the LORD had shut up her womb.
7 As he did so year by year, when she went up to the LORD's house. Her rival provoked her; therefore she wept, and didn't eat.
8 Elkanah her husband said to her, "Hannah, why do you weep? Why don't you eat? Why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"
*1:3: When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, "LORD" or "GOD" is the translation of God's Proper Name.
