It has been awhile since I last wrote an article and so much happened! As you can see, we are progressing on our new building. Although it looks just like a lot of dirt being tossed around, the contractors have been busy doing the work we usually don't see. like the foundation and plumbing. Hopefully soon we will have the new parking lot finished which will give us more room and eliminate the hassle of finding a spot. Thank you so much for your patience during this hectic time! Better times are coming.
As many of you know, MaryAnn Weigel, our Youth Minister is moving to Alabama in the next few weeks. After 8 years at St.Mark we will miss her greatly and we offer our love and prayers to her and Monty as they venture into a new life. We thank you MaryAnn for all your wonderful work these past years and please know that you will always be a large part of our St. Mark family.
On a similar note, Lorraine Greene, the leader of our front office staff, will be retiring at the end of June. She has been a member of our staff here at St. Mark for over 6 years and we will miss her greatly. It is well known that when God ends one journey, He takes us on another. We thank Lorraine for her work here these past years and we look forward to see what God has in store for her in retirement. Well done good and faithful servant!
We also welcome back all our college students, especially our graduates! It is great seeing them and hearing all about their experiences. Hope to see you all at Church while you are home.
Well, that is all for now. Enjoy the gift that God has given us in each other.
Peace,
Fr. David
