Luke 5:4b-11

he said to Simon,

“Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”

Simon answered,
“Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”


When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said,

“Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners.

Then Jesus said to Simon,



“Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.” So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

Joel 2:11-17

The LORD thunders
at the head of his army;
his forces are beyond number,
and mighty is the army that obeys his command.


The day of the LORD is great;
it is dreadful.
Who can endure it?


“Even now,” declares the LORD,
“return to me with all your heart,
with fasting and weeping and mourning.” Rend your heart
and not your garments.



Return to the LORD your God,
for he is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and abounding in love,
and he relents from sending calamity.
Who knows? He may turn and relent
and leave behind a blessing—
grain offerings and drink offerings
for the LORD your God.


Blow the trumpet in Zion,
declare a holy fast,
call a sacred assembly.
Gather the people,
consecrate the assembly;
bring together the elders,
gather the children,
those nursing at the breast.
Let the bridegroom leave his room
and the bride her chamber.
Let the priests, who minister before the LORD,
weep between the portico and the altar.
Let them say, “Spare your people, LORD.
Do not make your inheritance an object of scorn,
a byword among the nations.


Why should they say among the peoples,
‘Where is their God?’”
