Gospel: Mark 1:1-8The Gospel of Mark does not begin with a story of Jesus’ birth but with the voice of one crying out in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord.1 The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ.  2 As it is written in the prophet Isaiah, “See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you,  who will prepare your way, 3 the voice of one crying out in the wilderness:  ‘Prepare the way of the Lord;  make his paths straight,’ ”4 so John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And the whole Judean region and all the people of Jerusalem were going out to him and were baptized by him in the River Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 Now John was clothed with camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 He proclaimed, “The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me; I am not worthy to stoop down and untie the strap of his sandals. 8 I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
