Mk 16: 15
Go into all the world,
and proclaim the Gospel to every creature, alleluia.
The Gloria in excelsis (Glory to God in the highest) is said.
Collect
O God, who raised up Saint Mark, your Evangelist,
and endowed him with the grace to preach the Gospel,
grant, we pray,
that we may so profit from his teaching
as to follow faithfully in the footsteps of Christ.
Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
