SIXTEENTH SUNDAY B Lectionary #107
Reflections on ministry continue: the condemnation of false shepherds, the call to ministers to “come away and rest a while.”
Jeremiah 23:1-6. Through the prophet, God promises (1) to punish the leaders who are scattering the flock and not caring for them, (2) to intervene directly in caring for the people, (3) to provide leaders who will exercise pastoral care, and (4) to restore the Davidic dynasty.
Psalm of the Day: Ps (22) 23
A hymn praising God as a caring shepherd.

Ephesians 2:13-18. Writing to non-Jewish Christians, Paul explains how Jesus has broken down the walls dividing the Chosen People from the nations and made peace where there was division by creating “in himself one new person in place of the two.”
Mark 6:30-34. Reporting back from their mission (see last Sunday’s Gospel), the apostles are invited to rest, though it is difficult to find somewhere to do that.
