Mass Announcements
September 14, 2025
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.
Our reception desk is staffed from 8:15 to 12:15 on Sunday mornings to answer questions and provide support as needed.
Faith Formation has started, and we ask that you continue to use caution in the parking lot while these families are making their way to classes. To aid in the drop off of students and for safety reasons, the driveway in front of the school will be closed during Sunday morning Masses.
Today we will have a Second Collection for last week’s Eucharistic Congress. We hope that you were able to attend this event, and will make a donation to help offset costs. Donations can also be made online with the QR code in the Bulletin.
Next week we will have a Second Collection for our Priest’s Retirement fund. You can use the envelope in your packet, or make an online donation. A QR code and link can be found in the Bulletin.
Our Walking with Moms in Need group is collecting diapers, wipes and formula through September 21. Items can be left in the Narthex bin. Additional details are in the Bulletin.
Small Groups Registration for the Fall is open. Information on the study and the registration link can be found in the Bulletin.
The Ancient Order of Hibernians, an Irish Catholic men’s organization, will be selling raffle tickets after Mass. The grand prize is a $5,000 Guided Vacation through Ireland, or $3,000 in cash. There are also second and third place cash prizes. Tickets are $25 each, or 5 for $100, and payments may be made in cash, check, or credit card. The drawing will take place on November 29th.
Today we celebrate Exaltation of the Holy Cross. The readings for today’s Mass begin on page 1277 in your Hymnal. Please return your music 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.
