St. Mark's News & Events for June 8, 2008

Greetings as we begin another week!

Not much to report this week outside of the normal duties that happen in the regular life of a Priest. However, this past week we celebrated the passing on to eternal life of three people who had a deep relationship with our Lord and now share in the joys and the promises of Christ. Mr. Harold “Sonny” Sczepanski, Mr. Thomas McHale, and Mrs. Rita Linn all were laid to rest with a Mass of Resurrection here at St. Mark Catholic Church on last Thursday, Friday and Saturday respectively. All three funerals were different yet beautiful in its own way. We pray for their souls and we ask God’s strength for the families as they deal with their loss in the days and weeks to come.

At this point, we have well over 1000 responses to the seating survey and are counting the results. We can not accept any more responses and hope to have them finished soon. I am grateful to all of you who participated in the survey. I will be meeting in the near future with the Steering Committee to discuss preliminary seating plans. Keep watching the bulletin for details.

Speaking of information, have you visited our website lately? There is lots to see and read regarding the happenings at St. Mark. We are in the process of planning even more information in the weeks to come. Go ahead and give it a visit.

Well, that is all for now.
Continue to enjoy the gift that God has give us in each other.

Peace, Fr. David
