MARK PARISH BURLINGTON, VT Dear parishioners and friends: We are living in challenging times and also much uncertainty, all of which can lead to further anxiety and con- cern. It is in times such as these that our faith and reliance on the providential guidance of God is that much more needed and welcomed. Prayer is essential for our lives and encouraging each other to pray, praying for each other, and praying for our world are the greatest gifts we can offer to one another. With this in mind, we have recently acquired votive candle racks for our devotional altars. I invite you to please take time to light a candle as an offering of prayer for your intentions. There are two candle racks up against the walls with smaller candles, which burn for several hours, and then larger candle racks directly in front of the Blessed Mother and St. Joseph altars, which are 6-day candles. Also, there are three 8-day candles - one on the shelf next to the Blessed Mother statue, another on the shelf next to St. Joseph, and another on the window sill next to the Divine Mercy image. Finally the tabernacle lamp is a 14-day candle. We are offering all of these can- dles as votive lights to burn for your special intentions. These lighted candles remind us that prayers are being offered up for special intentions and they serve to encourage each of us to a more intentional commitment to prayer. Votive candles are a beautiful tradition of our Catholic faith. To help defray the cost of the candles we ask for the following recommended donations: • For the candle racks please simply place a donation of your choice in the receptacle at the rack • Suggested offering for the 6-day candles is $4, 8-day is $5, and 14-day is $8 • Please email or call the parish with your intention and your offering can be mailed, dropped off, or placed in the collection at mass Once we receive your intentions for the larger 6-day, 8-day and 14-day candles we will place it and light it ac- cording to the devotional altar you specify. Each week the bulletin will list the multiple day candles that have been lit and the intentions for each. I hope that the return of this beautiful Catholic tradition to St. Mark Church will deepen each of our prayer lives and encourage us to reach out in prayer for one another. Be assured always of my prayer for all of you! ~Fr.

National Vocation Awareness Week (NVAW) is an annual week-long celebration of the Catholic Church in the United States dedicated to promote vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and consecrated life through prayer and education, and to renew our prayers and support for those who are considering one of these particular vocations. NVAW began in 1976 when the U. S. bishops designated the 28th Sunday of the year for NVAW. In 1997, this celebration was moved to coincide with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, which fell on January 13 in 2013. Beginning in 2014, NVAW was moved to the first full week of November.

An altar server is a lay assistant to a member of the clergy during a religious service. An altar server attends to supporting tasks at the altar such as fetching and carrying, ringing bells, setting up, cleaning up, and so on. Until 1983, only young men whom the Church sometimes hoped to recruit for the priesthood and seminarians could serve at the altar, and thus altar boy was the usual term until Canon 230 was changed in the 1983 update to the Code of Canon which provided the option for local ordinaries (bishops) to permit females to serve at the altar. The term altar server is now widely used and accepted. When altar servers were only young men and seminarians the term acolyte was used. An acolyte is one of the instituted orders which is installed by a bishop. The title of acolyte is still only given to men as it is historically a minor order of ordained ministry. This term is now usually reserved for the ministry that all who are to be promoted to the diaconate receives at least six months before being ordained a deacon (c.

  • Good Friday Walk of Witness
    A Personal, devotional walk replacing the usual, communal Good Friday Walk of Witness This Walk begins and ends at the Parish Church of St. Nicholas; along the way it visits the War Memorial, St. Cecilia’s Roman Catholic Church, the Dersingham Methodist Church, Open Common and the Village Sign. 2 3 4 1/7 5 6 On each of the following pages you will find prayers and hymns for each of the seven stops on your Walk of Witness. To add to the experience, on each page you will find a QR code – scanning this will bring up a youtube video of the hymn in question, chosen from the vast range of music made available by choirs and individuals from around the world. (Please remember this will use your 3G/4G data whilst you are around the village) 1. Start at the Parish Church You may wish to say one of these prayers before you start, or say The Lord's Prayer. You may also wish to light a votive candle now, or at the end of your walk. Please note that if you are doing this walk on a day other than Good Friday, you may find the Parish Church locked, as we have to close on certain days during the pandemic to ensure that seating and doors are given a thorough deep clean. Lord Jesus, we praise you for your redeeming love and all that you have done for us. As we bow in penitence before the cross we gratefully acknowledge the debt we owe. For ours was the sin you bore, ours the ransom you paid ours the salvation you won.
