Today, April 25th, is St Mark’s Day—the day when Christians traditionally remember the author of the earliest written Gospel, the first evangelist to bring the Gospel to Egypt, and the patron of the wonderful parish in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. I did a short, 1 minute, video about St Mark that you can watch below.
Almighty God, by the hand of Mark the evangelist you have given to your Church the Gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God: We thank you for this witness, and pray that we may be firmly grounded in its truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
