THE LIGHT IS ON FOR YOU

St. Mark will be participating once again with other parishes in the Archdiocese of Baltimore with the program called The Light is ON for You, which was instituted by Archbishop Edwin F. O’Brien, to promote the Sacrament of Reconciliation during the Lenten Season.

Confessions at St. Mark will be heard by Fr. Whatley and Fr. Bowen during the Five Wednesdays of Lent in the Chapel between 7:00 & 8:30 p.m. to confess your sins and to receive the Gift of Sacramental Absolution.

SPECIAL MASS ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING CONFIRMATION

Please note that St. Mark will not celebrate 5:00 p.m. Mass on Feb 28 because the Sacrament of Confirmation is being conferred by Bishop Madden at 3:00 p.m. in the Church on both of those Sundays. Please continue to pray for our 96 Confirmation candidates!
