Sobremesa con Marcos / After dinner talk with Mark's Gospel

SOBREMESA CON MARCOS / AFTER DINNER TALK WITH MARK'S GOSPEL:
(Con un grupo pequeno en el sotano) (With a small group in the basement)
(Y un grupo pequeno en el mundo con libro en la mano) (And a small group in the world with book in hand)

“El taco consiste en una tortilla enrollada con la comida mezclada en su interior. El Evangelio de Marcos sabe más a un taco, puesto que a lo largo del libro. La palabra latina sapere significa tanto saber como sabor. De igual manera el saber que Marcos transmite tiene que ver con ponerle sabor a la vida,” escribe el autor Eliseo Pérez-Álvarez en su libro Marcos: Conozca su Biblia.

“The taco consists of a rolled tortilla with the food mixed up inside. The Gospel of Mark can be seen as a taco rolled lengthwise, like a book. The Latin word sapere is equally as much about tasting as knowing. In like manner, knowing the Gospel of Mark also shows us how to flavor our lives,” writes Eliseo Pérez-Álvarez, in his book: Mark: Know Your Bible.

Oracion de buen ánimo

O Dios, tu has llamado a tus servidores a caminos los cuales no podemos ver el final, por sendas aún no transitados, por peligros desconocido. Da nos fe para salir con buen ánimo, no sabiendo a donde vamos, sino que tu mano nos guía y tu amor nos sostiene por Jesus Cristo, nuestro Señor. Amen.

Holden Prayer, or Prayer of Good Courage

O Lord God, who has called us, your servants, to ventures of which we cannot see the ending, by paths as yet untrodden through perils unknown. Give us faith to go out with good courage, not knowing where we go, but only that your hand is leading us and your love supporting us. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
