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 five Thursday evenings, 7:00 PM-8:30 PM, beginning February 16 and concluding on Monday, March 20 (Consecration Day).
Please sign up so we can order materials. Sign-ups are available here and in the narthex, and here below the video.

Catholic Way Bible Study
-
Sessions are Tuesday mornings 9 - 11 am or Tuesday evenings 7 - 9 pm. Catholic Way Bible Study begins a new book or books of the Bible each September and completes the 23-week study by the following Easter.
Sessions are in person and begin September 13. CWBS will be studying the Letters to the Corinthians.
Far from being irrelevant today, the problems experienced by the Church at Corinth are familiar ground. Unity, state of life, moral temptations, liturgy, the Resurrection and many other issues are applicable to today's Church. Paul's inspired answers are informative and useful, still practical and fresh regardless of the centuries that have passed. Join as we take a look at the issues of life addressed by these two deeply inspiring letters.
Fillout and email registration form to Sue Tenny, or print and drop off at parish office. If you have any questions, email Sue Tenney at mailto:suetenny@hotmail.com or call 817-307-3817.

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.

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.
