St. Mary - St. Mark

Attention All -- 
Attention:
Until further notice, there will no weekend Mass held at St. Mary-St. Mark Parish. Our churches will NOT be reopening this weekend as previously planned. A letter was received today from Bishop Scharfenberger that no regularly scheduled/announced Masses should be celebrated publicly at this time. While New York State allows gatherings of no more than 10 for worship services, our Diocesan guidelines indicate that we will not be offering any public Masses of any size yet. Most likely, our church will not open to celebrate Mass until phase IV. Your patience is appreciated during this uncertain time. Thank you.

As you have surely heard by now, NYS has announced that Churches are allowed to open for services of less than 10 people.  At this time, St. Mary-St. Mark will be hold mass weekday mornings at 8:00am at St. Mary's for 10 or less people.  There will still be NO weekend masses at this time.  Any new information will be updated here as soon as it becomes available.

HOPE Day in support of the Catholic Charities Appeal 2020 is taking place Friday, May 22! 

HOPE Day,  is a 24-hour match challenge day of giving that takes place across Western New York. The first $58,750 raised on HOPE Day will be matched dollar-for-dollar, with gifts from donors who wish to remain anonymous, in the ongoing effort to reach the annual Appeal’s $10 million goal.

We hope you'll join us on May 22 and give the gift of HOPE.

Hello All,
St. Mary-St. Mark would like to take this opportunity to offer our sincere gratitude & appreciation to all of you who have kept your weekly offerings to the parish current and ask that you please continue to do so.   You may have noticed that checks are taking a bit longer to cash, this is due to the fact that the office is not open or fully staffed.  Banking is being done on a bi-weekly basis.  We are grateful for your generosity and appreciate your patience as we continue to operate with limited staff and time.  God Bless You.

Dear Parishioners,

This is a gentle reminder that in this uncertain time, our parish is truly in need of your support. Since Masses are suspended, no weekly offerings will be collected.  Because of this, our parish will have an extremely limited income. It is our  prayer that you will continue to support St. Mary-St.Mark by mailing/dropping off your envelopes or keeping your online donations current. If you are interested in setting up on-line donations, follow this link -->> On-Line Giving
If you would like to drop off your offering, please leave it in the mailbox of the Parish Center or the Rectory.
Thank you!

Please take care of yourself and your family... stay safe and healthy and may God Bless you all.
