Mass Announcements
October 18, 2026
Good evening/morning! Welcome to Saint Mark Catholic Church! We are happy to have you here. Please know that the staff is praying for you and your family daily.
If you have an allergy or need a special accommodation for Communion, please go to the sacristy before Mass and speak with the sacristan. Also, please be sure to consume the Holy Eucharist in front of the minister of Holy Communion, before walking away.
Please note that Confessions will end after the Homily, so that all may prepare for Communion.
Our reception desk is staffed from 8:15 to 12:15 on Sunday mornings to answer questions and provide support as needed.
Next week our priests will attend the annual Diocesan Priest Retreat, Monday through Friday. We WILL have daily 7 am Masses. The Bulletin incorrectly states that we will not. Thank you to Fr. Christopher Roux for offering the 7 am Mass for us on these days. On Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday we will have a Communion Service at 9 am. On Wednesday we will have a Communion Service at 6:30 pm. There will be no Confessions on Wednesday evening.
Today is World Mission Sunday, a global effort to support the Church across the world. Envelopes can be put into the offertory basket. Additional information and the online giving QR code can be found in the Bulletin.
Altar Server training for NEW servers will be available at 2:30 pm on Sunday in the Church. More information is in the Bulletin.
Space is still available for our Men’s Welcome Retreat on November 7 and 8. All men over 18 are welcome. Registration details are in the Bulletin.
Our Thanksgiving Food Drive kicks off this weekend. Bags will be handed out after Masses today and can be returned at weekend Masses over the next two weeks, or placed in the Narthex bin. Volunteers are needed for this effort as well. Please see the signup in the Bulletin.
The Ancient Order of Hibernians will be selling raffle tickets after Mass today. The grand prize is up to $5,000 toward a trip to Ireland or $3,000 cash. Tickets are $25 each or five for $100. Please stop by their table after Mass or see the bulletin for more information.
Interested in becoming more involved in our parish community? St. Mark Life Teen invites you to a Volunteer Interest Meeting on Sunday from 6-7 pm in the Parish Hall. Come learn about opportunities to serve and support the Life Teen Ministry. Light refreshments will be provided.
Today we celebrate the 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time. The readings for today’s Mass can be found on page 940.
Please return your booklets at the end of Mass to the table in the Narthex.
Mass is about to begin. Let us take a few moments in silence to quiet our hearts, minds and phones so that we might reflect on the Lord’s presence and the Mystery of the Eucharist which we are about to celebrate.
