Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time

Mark the Evangelist
Gortzius Geldorp / 1605

(from Art and the Bible)

From the Gospel of Saint Matthew

At the sight of the crowds, Jesus’ heart was moved with pity for them because they were troubled and abandoned, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.”

Just finished the Book of Matthew. Every time I read it, I learn more and enjoy more!

On to Book of Mark!
