Upcoming and Announcements
Saint Mark’s Singers Concert, May 18 at 4 p.m.
The Saint Mark’s Singers will sing Gioachino Rossini’s Petite messe solennelle (Little Solemn Mass). Entitling this work “petite” is ironic as the work is a grand Solemn Mass setting featuring musical writing more commonly found in his operas. Come and enjoy this performance.
Newcomer Brunch, Sunday, May 25 at 10 a.m.
The Saint Mark’s staff is excited to welcome our newcomers to a time of fellowship on Sunday, May 25. Whether you’ve joined us recently or have been here for many months and are interested in furthering your connection, we’re excited to have you. The clergy and staff will answer any questions and introduce you to all that is available to you and your family. Brunch will be held between Masses at 10 a.m. in the Rectory dining room. If you have any questions, please reach out to Gabriela Montequin.
Feast of the Ascension, Thursday, May 29 at 7 p.m.
Ascension Day is one of the major feasts of the church year, when we remember our Lord’s ascension to the right hand of the Father, where even now he reigns. We will keep this feast with a Choral High Mass at 7 p.m., followed by a time of hospitality.
Rector Discernment & Search Committee Discussion, Sunday, June 1 at 10 a.m.
Please plan to attend a session hosted by the Rector Discernment Committee for an update on the process and to discuss the parish profile (which is available on our Rector Discernment page). You will be invited to engage in conversation on the attributes described in the “Rector We Seek” section, found on pages 2-3 of the profile. This discussion will take the place of the Adult Forum.
St. Barnabas Day, Pontifical High Mass with Confirmation and Reception, Wednesday, June 11 at 7 p.m.
The Bishop of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, Daniel Gutiérrez, will celebrate and preach. The bishop will also confer confirmation and receive new members into the Episcopal Church. A reception will follow the Mass.
