For a special intention
St Mark the Evangelist
1 candle lit
Mark was a companion of the first missionaries. He travelled with his cousin Barnabas and with Paul, and Peter calls him 'my son' in his first letter. Tradition says he wrote the Gospel of Mark, the shortest of the four, drawing on Peter's preaching. Paul once refused to take him on a second journey, yet later asked for him to come, so the quarrel was healed. He is patron of notaries and of Venice, and his symbol is a winged lion. His feast is April 25. Light a free candle for writers, and for anyone who needs a second chance. St Mark, pray for us.
