Saint Mark Introduces our new Welcome Retreats!

Welcome is a ministry of Dynamic Catholic whose mission is to reenergize the Catholic Church in America. It is centered on a retreat experience hosted by our parish designed to help participants have an encounter with Jesus, develop a personal prayer life and discover the genius of Catholicism.

Welcome Women

A Special Opportunity for Women


Do you sense that something’s missing in your life? Do you feel that if you weren’t so busy you would be happier, healthier, more effective, more fulfilled, and maybe even a better person?

"Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

Come to St. Mark’s women’s Welcome weekend!

It’s an incredible experience that will help you discover what’s missing in your life and what to do about it. Whether you want to connect with other women in the parish, improve your prayer life, or just take a break from the craziness of your everyday, you will find what you are looking for- and more. 

Our Women’s Welcome Retreat is scheduled for the weekend of February 17-18, 2024 in the Kerin Family Center. Registration will open in fall 2023.

Welcome Men

A Special Opportunity for Men


Do you sense that something’s missing in your life? Do you feel that if you weren’t so busy you would be happier, healthier, more effective, more fulfilled, and maybe even a better person?

"Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

Come to St. Mark’s Men’s Welcome Weekend!

The Welcome Experience is a 1.5 day men's retreat built around creating fellowship with other men of the parish where they can share their Catholic Faith and the challenges of living a Christ-Centered Life. Welcome is designed to meet every man right where he is in his Faith journey... whether you are far away from God, seemingly close, or somewhere in between.

The Welcome Retreat was designed by Matthew Kelly's Dynamic Catholic organization, but is led by ordinary parishioners. Participants will hear 10 inspiring witness testimonies, enjoy great Food, great music, Mass, Adoration, examine their own faith experience, and build authentic Catholic fellowship. Space is limited, so sign-up today!   

Our Men's Welcome Retreat is scheduled for the weekend of November 11-12, 2023 in the Kerin Family Center.

For more information, please contact Jairo Cadena at jairocadenajr@gmail.com

Registration is closed. Stay tuned for 2024 information.
