Upcoming and Announcements
Modified Parish Office Schedule, Friday, July 3
The Parish Office will be closed on Friday, July 3, in observance of Independence Day. There will be Low Mass at 10 a.m., but no other liturgies or programming. The Food Cupboard will be open from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m.
Thursday Coffee Gathering, July 9 at 10:30 a.m.
These gatherings take place on the 2nd, 4th, and 5th Thursdays each month, and are an opportunity to come together for fellowship during the week. Please join us in the Food Court at Liberty Place for coffee and conversation with fellow parishioners. To find folks, walk to the windows, turn right and you will see the less crowded area where we will be the group with a red Saint Mark’s coffee mug on our table. If you have any questions about the gathering, contact Susan McDonald.
Soup Making Session, Thursday, July 9, from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m.
The Saturday Soup Bowl feeds approximately 140 guests each Saturday, and it takes many gallons of soup to feed those folks! The parish is now hosting group soup-making sessions in the parish kitchen for folks to drop in to assist with chopping, stirring, and storing soup. We will provide the ingredients and utensils, just bring yourself and a can-do attitude! If you would like to help, please contact Kenny Pearlstein or drop by in the morning.
Summer Bible Study, Thursday, July 16, at 6:00 p.m.
Saint Mark's Bible study is continuing its study of the Gospel of Mark. Besides being the namesake of our parish, Mark is usually considered to be the earliest written gospel. In this book, our Lord is constantly on the move — teaching, healing, and engaging crowds eager to hear more about the Good News. Join us as we discuss what Mark's Gospel has to say to us today. Bible Study meets in person in the Rectory Dining Room with a remote option for those who wish to join online. For more information and to receive the Zoom link, contact Jay Blossom. The full schedule is available on our website.
