Pastor David reads Mark 10:32-45 and offers a prayer from Henry Martyn:

Send out your light and your truth, that I may live always near to you, my God. Let me feel your love, that I may be as it were already in heaven, that I may do my work as the angels do theirs; and let me be ready for every work, ready to go out or go in, to stay or depart, just as you direct. Lord, let me have no will of my own, or consider my true happiness as depending in the smallest degree on anything that happens to me outwardly, but as consisting totally in conformity to your will.

O God, who has warned us that you will require much from those to whom much is given: grant that we, whose lot is cast in so goodly a heritage, may strive together the more abundantly, by prayer, by almsgiving, by fasting, and by all appointed means, to extend to those who do not know you what we so richly enjoy; and as we have entered into the labors of others, so to labor, that others may enter into ours, to the fulfillment of your holy will and the salvation of all humankind; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Pastor David reads Mark 6:47-56 and offers a prayer from Lancelot Andrewes:

Glory be to you, O Lord,
for that you did create not only the visible light,

that which may be known of God, the law written in the heart;
give us a mind to perceive this light in
the oracles of prophets,
the melody of psalms,
the prudence of proverbs,
the experience of histories,
and the life and love of our Lord Jesus Christ,
for his sake.
