- The Search Begins!
  We are all searching for something. Why am I here? Will I ever be happy? What hapens when I die?
  We find the answers to life's big questions when we wrestle with them in faith. In fact, the story of human history has largely been a story faith. We need a relationship with our maker — a relationship with life — to make sense of all of this.
  THE SEARCH leads people to the deepest question of the human heart, exploring the meaning and purpose of life with a visually stunning and intellectually stimulating approach.

Consecration to St. Joseph-The Wonders of Our Spiritual Father
- Pope Francis has designated this year as The Year of St. Joseph. St. Mark will be offering a program entitled “Consecration to St. Joseph-The Wonders of Our Spiritual Father”. How well do you know St. Joseph? The person who consecrates himself to St. Joseph wants to be as close to their spiritual father as possible, to the point of resembling him in virtue and holiness. The program will help you learn more about St. Joseph and all the ways he can help you grow in your spiritual life, bringing you closer to his son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
  
  The program is open to all adults in the parish, male and female. We will meet in-person at St. Mark once a week for six Thursday evenings, 7:00 PM-8:30 PM, beginning April 8, 2021 and concluding on May 13th, the Feast Day of Our Lady of Fatima.
  
  Please sign up so we can order materials. Sign-ups will be available online at the parish website and next week in person in the narthex. Please join us for this wonderful opportunity to learn more about our spiritual father and to fellowship with our St Mark community.

The Sacraments
- The great Sacraments of the Church - Baptism, Confirmation, the Eucharist, Reconciliation, the Anointing of the Sick, Matrimony, and Holy Orders - have endure for thousands of years and structured countless lives. Everything in the Church's life comes from and returns to them.
  
  But there is far more to these ancient rites than meets the eye.
  
  In this follow - up to The Mass, Bishop Barron looks at the great sacraments of the Church in all their theological depth, spiritual effects, and pastoral promise. The Sacraments will help you understand these signs and channels of grace and discover the secret behind their persistence down the ages: the presence and power of the Savior himself.
