Today’s Prayer: O God, let us draw upon the inspiration of St. Mark today, who proclaimed the Good News through his preaching and writing. May we be people of faith who remind the world of the Good News today by our own words and actions. May we keep Jesus’ story alive through the living of our own lives. Give us the strength to proclaim your mercy, your love, your hope and your presence to the world we encounter today. Help us to find your presence, your image and likeness within ourselves. Help us to be your grace to a struggling world today and always. Amen!
