PSR began on 9/25/22, but there is still plenty of time to register! Call the office at 740-653-1229 OR stop by OR complete the on-line registration to the right of this paragraph.

On Sunday, October 30^th there will be a PSR event for children for All Saints Day (November 1^st), which is the Solemnity of All Saints (holy day of obligation). The event will not affect class start and end times.

This is the first of several event classes scheduled for this PSR year. Our hope is these events will provide the children with additional learning opportunities about our faith.
 

Mark your calendars for December 6th! There will be a St. Nicholas party for all youth. More details to follow.

On November 6^th from 11:45AM-12:45 PM, St. Mark Faith Formation will hold a round-table discussion for TEENAGERS in grades 7-12 and Facilitators ONLY. There will be no other adults admitted and the conversation is confidential. The topic of discussion will be Why it is difficult to be a Catholic youth today.  Please represent and let your voices be heard!
 

THE FIRST COMMUNION PARENT MEETINGS ARE SCHEDULED FOR 10/23/22 & 10/26/22
If your child has not made First Communion or First Confession and is in 2^nd grade (age 8 or above), the annual First Communion Parent only meeting will be held 10/23/22 at 10:00 in Room 7 for St. Mark parents, and Wednesday 10/26/22 at 7:00 pm in Geiger Hall for St. Joseph parents. If you cannot make it to one meeting, you are welcome to attend the other. At these important meetings, there will be an introduction to the Prayer Catechist. Parents also will receive overall instructions, the children’s study materials, prayer memorization lists, retreat information, May Crowning event information, and a calendar for all of it. Because we need to get a good headcount to ensure we have enough materials, we ask that you respond to your Parish Administrator by October 18^th if you plan to attend. St. Mark families are asked to RSVP by calling Theresa Brunney at 740-653-1229 and St. Joseph families are asked to RSVP to Dave Seifert at 740-746-8302.
