Mark 3:13-19
Every baptized Christian is called to be disciple of Jesus.

Will I remain faithful like the eleven or, like Judas, give into despair and betray the Lord of Life? Christ Jesus, help me live into my calling as your disciple. Give me again the joy of your help; with a spirit of fervour sustain me, that I may teach transgressors your ways and sinners may return to you.
