Gospel

Mark 9:38-40

38But Jesus said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a miracle in my name, and can soon speak ill of me. 39For he that is not against you, is for you. 40For whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because you belong to Christ: amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.
