Bend your ear to our prayers, Lord Christ, and come among us.

one God now and forever.  AMEN
                                          WE HEAR GOD’S WORD
First Reading                                                     1Samuel 16:1-13
Psalm  23
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
    He makes me lie down in green pastures;
he leads me beside still waters;

    he restores my soul
He leads me in right paths
    for his name’s sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley,
    I fear no evil;

for you are with me;
    your rod and your staff—
    they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
    my whole life long.
