☆ Gospel:Mark 1:14-20
14
Now after John had been put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the good news of God,
15
And saying, The time has come, and the kingdom of God is near: let your hearts be turned from sin and have faith in the good news.
16
And going by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, the brother of Simon, putting a net into the sea: for they were fishermen.
17
And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
18
And they went straight from their nets, and came after him.
19
And going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their boat stitching up their nets.
20
And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.

☆ 1 Samuel 1:1-8
1
Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim, a Zuphite of the hill-country of Ephraim, named Elkanah; he was the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:
2
And he had two wives, one named Hannah and the other Peninnah: and Peninnah was the mother of children, but Hannah had no children.
3
Now this man went up from his town every year to give worship and to make offerings to the Lord of armies in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.
4
And when the day came for Elkanah to make his offering, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and daughters, their part of the feast:
5
But to Hannah he gave one part, though Hannah was very dear to him, but the Lord had not let her have children.
6
And the other wife did everything possible to make her unhappy, because the Lord had not let her have children;
7
And year by year, whenever she went up to the house of the Lord, she kept on attacking her, so that Hannah gave herself up to weeping and would take no food.
8
Then her husband Elkanah said to her, Hannah, why are you weeping? and why are you taking no food? why is your heart troubled? am I not more to you than ten sons?
