St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Community
Bishop’s Adult Initiative for the Rite of Confirmation
In an effort to “open wide the doors to Christ” for the people of our diocese, Bishop Kevin Farrell has extended the permission for pas-
tors to confirm adults in their parishes on Pentecost. In this light, St. Mark the Evangelist, through Bishop Farrell, invites our practicing
adult Catholics (18 years of age and out of high school), who lack the Sacrament of Confirmation, to be sealed with the fullness of the gift
of the Holy Spirit.
If you are currently a registered member of St. Mark the Evangelist and a practicing adult Catholic in good standing and have
already received the Sacrament of Baptism and Eucharist, you are invited to register and attend the preparation class on Tues. May 5,
beginning at 7PM, in McGivney Hall. McGivney Hall is located in the St. Mark Parish Center, 1105 West 15 th Street.) Sponsors are welcome to attend Adult
Confirmation will be celebrated at the Vigil Mass for Pentecost on Saturday, May 23 at the 5:30PM Mass.
To register for the Adult Confirmation preparation class, the following information must be turned in to the Faith Formation Office prior to attending the class. The Faith Formation Office is located in the St. Mark Parish Center.

For more than 32 years, St. Mark has been providing our young students with the solid foundation they need to prepare them for ele-mentary school and beyond. Our age-appropriate Early Childhood programs are enhanced with instruction in Art, Music, Spanish, Technology and Physical Education, and we incorporate Catholic teachings in all that we do. St. Mark has been twice-recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as a Blue Ribbon Exemplary School, and has been nominated for a rare third Blue Ribbon award in 2015. This means that our students consistently score in the top 15% in the nation on standardized tests.
We kindly ask that you register online in advance at www.stmcs.net/open-house-registration. If you are unable to attend, please contact the school office at (972) 578-0610 to arrange a tour.
