Jonathan cherished David,
the wedding guests delight to be with the bridegroom,
and we take pleasure in your presence, O Christ.
Mark, Barnabas, and Saul found strength
in traveling together when they did your work;
and we find support in our companions in the faith.
Without them, and without you,
full of nothingness
we would blow away like chaff.
