Mark 9:42-10:1
Mark 9:42-10:1 (King James Version)
42And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
43And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
44Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
45And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
46Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
47And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:
48Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
49For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.
50Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
Mark 10
1And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.

Memory of our venerable Mother Xenia (Fifth century)
Saint Xenia, formerly named Eusebius, was born in Rome during the Fifth century into a noble and fervent Christian family. Destined for marriage by her parents, at the time when all were ready to celebrate her marriage, she took to flight with two other young girls. All three embarked and after many changes in fortune, settled down at Mylasa in the province of Caria in Asia, with a monk named Paul. Xenia-this was her new name-built a small oratory in honor of the protomartyr Saint Stephen and, with her two companions and some other virgins who had joined them, consecrated themselves to the practice of virtues. She died in peace after a holy life.
Fifth Class Feast.
In occurrence with the Saturday of the Dead, a Saint of the Fifth Class is disregarded, and a Saint of the Third Class is anticipated on the preceeding Friday.
