Thursday of Week 4;
St. Jane Valois
FIRST READING
1 Kings 2:1-4, 10-12
When the time of David’s death drew near, he gave
these instructions to his son Solomon: “I am going the way of all flesh. Take
courage and be a man. Keep the mandate of the LORD, your God, following his
ways and observing his statutes, commands, ordinances, and decrees as they are
written in the law of Moses, that you may succeed in whatever you do, wherever
you turn, and the LORD may fulfill the promise he made on my behalf when he
said, ‘If your sons so conduct themselves that they remain faithful to me with
their whole heart and with their whole soul, you shall always have someone of
your line on the throne of Israel.’”
David rested with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David. The length of David’s reign over Israel was forty years: he reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Solomon was seated on the throne of his father David, with his sovereignty firmly established.

GOSPEL
Mark 6:7-13
Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them
out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits. He instructed them
to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick –no food, no sack, no money
in their belts.
They were, however, to wear sandals but not a
second tunic. He said to them, “Wherever you enter a house, stay there until
you leave from there. Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you,
leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them.” So
they went off and preached repentance. The Twelve drove out many demons, and
they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them.
