Mass Announcements
December 7, 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.
Monday, December 8, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, is a Holy Day of Obligation. You must attend Mass twice this weekend, once for Sunday and once for the Holy Day. Details on Masses and options to meet both obligations can be found in the Bulletin.
We are so very fortunate to have first class relics of St. Anthony of Padua visiting St. Mark on Monday, December 8. They will be available for veneration after the 12:10 and 7 pm Spanish Holy Day Masses.
The Knights of Columbus are hosting a Blood Drive Sunday morning from 8 am to 1 pm. Walk-ins are welcome.
Join us next Saturday, December 13 for our Christmas Tree lighting after the 5 pm Mass. We will sing Christmas Carols and have cookies and hot chocolate. All are welcome.
We are grateful for our parishioners’ generous donations of non-perishable food in our Narthex bin. Please do not leave clothing or household items in the bin. These will be taken to Goodwill.
All high schoolers are invited to youth group in the Parish Hall this Sunday from 6-8 pm. Dinner is provided.
Today we celebrate the Second Sunday of Advent. The readings for today’s Mass begin on page 809 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.
