Mark 6: 30-34
The apostles gathered around Jesus, and told him all that they had done and taught. He
said to them, “Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while.” For many
were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat. And they went away in the
boat to a deserted place by themselves. Now many saw them going and recognized them,
and they hurried there on foot from all the towns and arrived ahead of them. As he went
ashore, he saw a great crowd; and he had compassion for them, because they were like
sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
