PET BLESSING

In celebration of the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi, the primary patron saint of animals, celebrated for his love and care for all creatures, we invite you to bring your beloved pets—big and small—for a special blessing!

Sunday, October 4, 2:00 PM
Saint Kilian Parking Lot, behind the church

Bring your furry, feathered, and four-legged friends for a special blessing and a treat! We look forward to celebrating God’s gift of our beloved pets with you! For the safety of your pets and everyone attending, please keep all pets leashed or safely secured in a cage/carrier.

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

Two-Thirds of the Way Home: Our Campaign Momentum Continues!
Great things are happening at Saint Mark Parish! Our Capital Campaign is nearly two-thirds of the way toward our goal, with more than $9.5 million pledged towards our target of $15 million. Now is the time to finish strong — help us reach the final $5.5 million.

To every family who has already given, thank you. Your generosity is building a place where our parish will gather, learn, and grow in faith for generations to come. If you have not yet made your pledge, we invite you to prayerfully consider how you can help us reach the finish line. Every gift, of any size, brings us closer. Pledge cards are available at the church entrances, in the pews, or you may contact the parish office with any questions.
