The parish community of St. Mark the Evangelist invites members of the assembly who are qualified (registered members who have received First Communion) to accept the privilege and responsibility of proclaiming the Word of God at Mass as Readers.
The Reader should be a person of prayer who reflects frequently on the words of Scripture, engages in ongoing formation in the study of spirituality, scripture, liturgy, and technical skills, and seeks to live and proclaim the Word of God in everyday life.
- Existing Readers at St. Mark should review emails for announcements and information about ongoing liturgical and scriptural formation.
- If you cannot read at the assigned Mass, please arrange to switch weeks with another Reader or have another Reader substitute for you. A contact list for all Readers is provided.
