I am happy to announce that St. Mark has been selected to host a graduate student from Notre Dame who will be learning the ins and outs of parish life. Beginning in August, this person will be under contract for two years and he/she will be working with our staff in the various departments of our parish. This is truly an honor for us as we work in conjunction with the College of Notre Dame to equip their students in parish ministry to the future benefit of the Universal Church. However, there is a small salary we must provide to meet the needs of the student while he/she is with us. I am asking all those in our parish who have graduated from Notre Dame if they would be interested in helping us meet this small salary. Anything you can give would be greatly appreciated and of course is tax deductible. If you are interested, please email me at frdavid@stmarktampa.org or call me at the office. I will be able to provide more information on the person in a later bulletin. Thanks again for anyone who can help.
As we all know, July is usually a very slow month when it comes to doing anything worthwhile in the Church. Between the heat and family vacations, we see less of our St Mark parish family during the week and on weekends. Just remember to bring God on vacation too in whatever capacity you can. Hope you all enjoy this time of rest!
Peace,
Fr. David
