Children Sermon
First Reading: Jonah 3:1-5, 10
1The word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, saying, 2“Get up, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you.” 3So Jonah set out and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly large city, a three days’ walk across. 4Jonah began to go into the city, going a day’s walk. And he cried out, “Forty days more, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” 5And the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast, and everyone, great and small, put on sackcloth.
10When God saw what they did, how they turned from their evil ways, God changed his mind about the calamity that he had said he would bring upon them; and he did not do it.
The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.
Psalm: 62:5-12
5For God alone I | wait in silence;
truly, my hope | is in God.
6God alone is my rock and | my salvation, my stronghold, so that I shall nev- | er be shaken.
7In God is my deliverance | and my honor; God is my strong rock | and my refuge.
8Put your trust in God al- | ways, O people, pour out your hearts before the one who | is our refuge. R
9Those of high degree are but a fleeting breath; those of low estate can- | not be trusted. Placed on the scales together they weigh even less | than a breath.
10Put no trust in extortion; in robbery take no | empty pride; though wealth increase, set not your | heart upon it.
11God has spoken once, twice | have I heard it, that power be- | longs to God.
12Steadfast love belongs to | you, O Lord,for you repay all according | to their deeds. R
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 7:29-31
29Brothers and sisters, the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none, 30and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions, 31and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away.
The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.
Gospel Acclamation*
Gospel: Saint Mark 1:14-20*
Glory to you Oh Lord.
14Now after John was arrested, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, 15and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news.”
16As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the sea—for they were fishermen. 17And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.” 18And immediately they left their nets and followed him. 19As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. 20Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.
The Gospel of the Lord ,Praise to you Oh Christ.

Hymn of the Day You Have Come Down to the Lakeshore ELW 817
Apostle’s Creed*
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead.* On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
