John 6: 1-14, Mark 60: 30-44

“Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?” Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Jesus then took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks to God, and distributed them to the people.

They all ate and were satisfied.

Freed by Christ, we gather, grow, give and go, all to the Glory of God!”
