Reception of Holy Communion
For the Feast of the Ascension, Bishop Weisenburger has authorized the parishes of the Diocese of Tucson to offer Holy Communion outside the church. Our Catholic theology of Eucharist teaches that reception of the Eucharist is not ordinarily severed from the full celebration of the Mass. For this reason, you are urged to take part in viewing a streamed Mass from any parish, diocese, or other internet liturgies from Friday, May 22 through Monday, May 25.
The distribution of Eucharist at St. Mark Parish will be available:
When: Friday, May 22 through Monday, May 25
Where: Parish Courtyard
At what time: Starting at 9 am Friday through Monday
and ending when there are no more communicants
Our pastor, Fr. John Arnold, is submitting a plan for approval by Bishop to reopen St. Mark for public Mass for the Feast of Pentecost. We hope to inform you of that plan upon approval.
