Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time

In the readings this weekend, we are invited to reflect on the radical call to Christian love. Jesus continues to turn his disciples’ way of thinking upside-down. One of the lessons for the Christian steward in Sunday’s Gospel is to be generous and give more than expected when we have the chance to help someone in need.  

Take Jesus’ message of love seriously and consider what a difference doing so could make in the lives of others. Jesus went “the extra mile” for us, can we do so for others?

Blessings,
Father John

It is a privilege to partner with you in passing on and celebrating our Catholic faith with your family. We value the Catholic formation that your children receive in their respective schools and are grateful for the commitment you put forth so that your children may attend Mecklenburg Area Catholic Schools (MACS). MACS offers a significant financial benefit to those families who are participating in the life of their parish. To receive this financial benefit from MACS your family must be “participating” at your respective parish. To qualify as participating at Saint Mark Catholic Church, the following three requirements must be met: Parish Registration, Mass Participation and Parish Participation. Find the details on our website at www.stmarknc.org/MACS before you register in the Catholic School System.

We will hold an informational meeting on February 24, 2020 at 8 am in room 200/201 of the Saint Mark Catholic Church Family Center. Feel free to attend If you would like further clarification of the participation requirements. Any further questions or concerns can be directed to Beth Zuhosky at stewardship@stmarknc.org .
