Parish Office Summer Fridays in August
The Parish Office will close at 1 p.m. following the 12:10 Low Mass during the month of August. There will be no Evening Prayer on Fridays in August.
Low Mass in August
Low Masses in August will be according to the American Missal. This resource forms an important part of Saint Mark’s history. The Mass is always first and foremost an act of prayer, regardless of the specific liturgical resource used. However, the American Missal draws from older liturgical practices and language. It’s in that spirit that we hope you’ll appreciate these few weeks of its return.
Saint Mark’s Prayer Group, Tuesday, August 25 at 7 p.m.

Soup Making Session, Thursday, August 27, from 8 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.
Thursday Coffee Gathering, August 27, 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.
