FIFTH SUNDAY OF LENT

Both Martha and Mary express great conviction in Jesus’ healing power:
“Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
Their 
conviction, however, was tied to their human experience of the fragility of sickness
and the finality of death.
Jesus’ action surmounts 
human experience and reveals something entirely new:
“everyone who lives and believes in [him] will never die.”
Belief in Jesus unties us from the limits of human 
experience and frees us for the eternity of risen Life. 









Join us for LENTEN LUNCH at St. Mark Catholic Church every Wednesday through Lent at 12:05 PM. 
Cost is only $4.00 for delicious homemade soups and sandwiches.
Event open to public!
Come down to O'Connell Hall (basement of St. Mark Church) to enjoy a great meal and wonderful fellowship.
Guest Speaker from the Cameron County Ministerial Association weekly.
