 St Mark

The second Gospel was written by St. Mark who in the New Testament is sometimes called John Mark. St. Mark was requested by the Romans to set down the teachings of St. Peter. This seems to be confirmed by the position which St. Peter has in this Gospel. In this way the second Gospel is a record of the life of Jesus as seen through the eyes of the Prince of the Apostles. His feast day is April 25.He died on April 26.
