PART-TIME ASSISTANT NEEDED
The office of Family and Youth Ministry is hiring a part-time assistant. This is an 8-10 hour/week position that requires Sunday mornings during Parish School of Religion and provides a flexible weekday schedule. This is an excellent opportunity for those with children in school or someone looking for a way to dedicate more time to the church and its mission of forming our children in the faith.
The Family and Youth Ministry Assistant reports to the Director of Family and Youth Ministry to support and maintain a variety of family and youth-centered programs possessing the administrative, organizational and communication skills necessary to perform the expected duties. To apply, please contact Mary Beth Crumly at familyfaith@stmarkrc.org or call 205-980-1810 ext. 5.
A Great Opportunity for Lent 2022---Lead a Small Group: We are gearing up now for Lenten small faith-sharing groups in the parish, and we need new facilitators to coordinate groups. We want to build on the last three years of positive small group experiences at St. Mark. The groups will start the week of February 20 and meet for 6 weeks, finishing before Holy Week. We will use the book distributed at Christmas, Positively Catholic, by Michael Leach. Facilitator training and resources are available before the groups begin. People will be signing up for groups in February. If you are interested, please let Sr Madeline know by February 1. Sister needs to know what day, time, and location you would like to facilitate the group. Using parish meeting rooms rather than your home is a possibility. Contact Sr. Madeline at SrMadeline@stmarkrc.org or call her at 205-980-1810, ext.3.
The Welcome Committee of St. Mark the Evangelist Parish announces our first Welcome Weekend, which will begin the first weekend in February (Saturday, February 5th and Sunday, February 6, 2022) and the first of each month thereafter. All registered parishioners who joined the Parish during the last six months are invited to meet in the Narthex after Mass to receive a welcome packet and gift. Families who have not yet registered, but would like to do so, are also invited to receive a welcome packet, along with a registration form. Meet a Welcome Committee member at the Greeters Desk in the narthex after Mass.

PARISH SCHOOL OF RELIGION (PSR)
9:00 am - 10:15 am in the Youth Center
...
Beginning in fall of 2021, children are to be enrolled in religious education classes the year prior to the year of sacramental reception. This means if a child is to receive First Communion in Grade 2, they are to be enrolled in Grade 1 Parish School of Religion. The same holds true for Confirmation. If your child is to be confirmed in the 9th grade, they are to be enrolled in 8th Grade PSR.
***The Goal of the Saint Mark Parish School Of Religion is to support and assist Parents in the faith journey of their children. Parents, by word and example, are the primary teachers of their children.
We offer the opportunity for faith to come alive for our children through knowledge, prayer and the sacraments. We strive to assist our children in committing themselves to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Saint Mark provides religious education for four year old through 9th grade in the Youth Center.
Sunday 4 yrs to 8th grade 9:00 A.M. to 10:15 A.M. Wednesday 9th Grade Confirmation Class 7:00 P.M. to 8:15 P.M.
