Young Acolyte Workshop, Sunday, August 25 at 10 a.m. in the Church
Is your child interested in participating in Family Mass, but feels a bit anxious? Wants to acolyte but hasn’t gotten around to it? Just wants to see what’s involved? We’re inviting all children and youth to join us for an acolyte workshop after Family Mass on August 25. Kids will be able to try out different roles such as server, lector, crucifer, and usher in a low-stress environment. Come try it out and help us make Family Mass more about families!
Homecoming Sunday, September 8
Homecoming Sunday celebrates the return of the Choir of Boys and Girls, the Parish Choir, and our regular faith formation offerings for all ages. Join us for a celebratory coffee hour following the 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. Masses. We hope to see you there and invite someone to visit Saint Mark’s with you!
Ministry Fair, Sunday, September 15
Have you ever wanted to learn more about one of the many ministries of the parish? Or wondered what is required to get involved? Following each Mass on September 15, there will be stations for each area of ministry with helpful parishioners available to answer your questions and encourage you to explore new ways to become involved at Saint Mark’s.
