Today's Readings: Acts 1:15-17, 21-26; Psalm 1; 1 John 5:9-13; John 17:6-19
Noticias Re"Mark"adas (anuncios espanol) Together in Faith: Jesus looked up to heaven and said…”I have made your name known.” John 17: 6 Like Jesus, we are invited to make God present in our world, today. We do this by our words, of course, but even more by our actions. A steward strives to do as Jesus suggested: feed the hungry, care for the sick, reach out for the needy. Bishop's Committee Parishioner Liaison: Every week there is an assigned member of the Bishop's Committee to serve as a Parishioner Liaison. We encourage parishioners to seek out this assigned member whenever there is a suggestion, question or concern. The liaisons will bring all comments to the monthly meeting of the Bishop's Committee to be addressed as appropriate. This week’s Parishioner Liaison is John Ddamba. Sunday School: The last scheduled day of church school is May 20th. Awards will be presented on that day during our regular service. Spring Cleaning Yard Sale: St. Mark’s will be holding a Spring Cleaning Yard Sale on Saturday, May 19th from 7 am—3 pm in Knight Hall and St. Mark’s parking lot. Shop for great deals! Spread the word to family, friends and neighbors! Donations are graciously being accepted of household items in good, working condition such as: furniture, electronics, kitchen dishes, appliances, etc. If you need help bringing larger items to the church, please contact Fr. Gerardo at 480-406- 3852 to schedule assistance with pickup. We need volunteers to work at this yard sale, even if only in short shifts, as well as additional volunteers to assist with distribution of food and drinks to participants—all help is appreciated! Contact Fr. G or the office for more information. All funds generated are being allocated towards property repairs and other church expenditures. Women’s Shelter: Daughters of the King will be accepting donations for the Women’s Shelter. Please place hygiene products in the box provided in the narthex. We would like toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion, socks, underwear, and other feminine hygiene products. Cursillo Weekend: The next Cursillo Co-ed Weekend is scheduled to take place July 19-22, 2018, at the Franciscan Renewal Center in Phoenix. The deadline for applications is May 31, 2018. Anyone interested in attending the Weekend may contact Monica Larsen at 480-621-8158/[email protected] or any member of our Cursillo Ministry. Pentecost is coming: Please join YOUR voice to our multilingual "group reading" of Acts 2:1-21! We need people of all ages with a reading knowledge of any language or dialect. The passage we will read is short (Acts 2, verses 5-11 only); your rendition need not be "perfect"; if you're shy, don't worry -- you won't be "in the spotlight"; and we'll even print out a translation for you. In past years, the Pentecost message has been heard in Arabic, English, French, German, Gullah, Igbo, Kikuyu, Latin, Russian, Spanish, Vietnamese... We may need more than one speaker of each language -- the more, the better! Please contact Jan Northcutt: [email protected] or 480-621-0085. Let's make a "joyful noise" to the Lord!
