Welcome Sr. Doreen and Sr. Francina We would like to welcome Sr. Doreen Philippiah, SFB and Sr. Francina
Irudayanathan, SFB to our parish community. Sr. Doreen and Sr. Francina are members of the religious community “The Sisters of the Holy Family of Bordeaux”. They recently moved to Aylmer. Both sisters have experience in the area of religious education and sacramental preparation, and have offered
to help out at in this regard. We thank them for their generous offer and welcome them to our parish community. Initially the sisters will be helping out with our First Communion/First Reconciliation Preparation, Adult Faith
Formation, and Youth Ministry. Welcome Sisters!
Baptism Preparation – First Session of the fall is about to begin!The preparation for Baptism includes sessions on two consecutive Tuesday evenings. The first session begins on September 12, and the second session will follow on September 19 with the Baptisms to be celebrated on September 23 or September 24. You can register on-line from our website or by contacting the parish office at (819) 684-6926. So please share this information with friends and family members who might want to join us in these sessions. Welcoming New Parishioners to St. Mark’s St. Mark's Parish will hold a welcome dinner for new parishioners in September. If you are new to the parish and have not yet registered as a member you can register by using the form found at the entrance to the church. The Hospitality Ministers will be pleased to help you find the form. Once filled in you can put it in the collection basket at mass, return the form to the Hospitality Minster, or drop it off at the parish office. We look forward to welcoming you to St. Mark’s Parish. Youth Group Message The youth group would like to extend a big thank you to all those who took time out of their busy schedule to come support them at their end of year talent show! A big thank you to those as well who could not make it but supported the youth group by purchasing a ticket nonetheless! As we do every year, we ask for those wishing to help out in whatever capacity they can with the youth group to simply inquire at [email protected]. There is always a need for "event planning" or "activity planning" or "Thursday evenings" or "committee planning" or "outings" so if anything catches your eye, drop us an email! The youth group will start off their year with an informal "meet and greet" BBQ on September 16th. There will be a pick up at the church at 12:00 noon and we will be returning to the church at 2:00 pm. If you have not registered your child for the 2017-2018 youth group year yet, send us an email and we'll send you all the information required. Annual Commemorative Cemetery Service – St. Paul’s Church A commemorative cemetery service will be held at St. Paul’s cemetery on Sunday, September 17 at 3:00 p.m. We will be naming those dear to us who have passed on during the last year and whose burial was held at St. Paul’s cemetery. A reminder to bring your own chairs, and in the event that it rains please note that it will be held inside St. Paul’s Church. The St. Vincent de Paul National Week!! September 23 – 30 September, 2017. For more information on Quebec National Week, contact your nearest St. Vincent de Paul or visit the Quebec Regional Council Website at: ssvp.qc.ca
Aylmer Food Center – September 23 The inauguration of the Aylmer Food Centre will take place on Saturday, September 23 at 11 a.m.. At 67 Convent Street. Everyone is invited. There will be a family festivity with games, activities for children, light food, music etc. Everyone is welcome!! A warm welcome to visitors and to new parishioners! Welcome to those who want to make their “faith-home” here with us. You may be new to Aylmer, or you may have been ‘away for a while’. Be assured that we love to have you among us! You are invited to join us for refreshments after Mass on the first and third Sundays of the month – a good opportunity to meet others in our parish community. Your children are welcome to participate in the children’s liturgies during the 9:00 and 11:00 Masses on Sunday mornings – a time when they join with other children to hear the Word of God in a way which they can understand. We would appreciate it if you introduced yourself to one of our hospitality ministers, or to Father John. It would also help if you could take the time to fill out a registration form, which you can get from a hospitality minister. The next time you are with us, you can drop off the registration form in the collection basket or give it to one of the hospitality ministers. Once again, welcome! Financial update from the Fabrique
We have changed how we provide information on the collection in order to provide parishioners with more useful information on our financial situation at St. Mark’s. We provide a comparison of income and expenses every month. We hope that this format will be useful to you, and we thank you for your generosity!

Friday, December 8: Feast of the Immaculate Conception – 9:00 AM Mass
Mary is one of the principal Advent figures. We honour her and let ourselves be inspired by her so that she may teach us to become Advent people –
awake and awaiting the coming of Christ. This Feast Day is also an important day for Fr. John’s religious community, the Missionary Oblates of
Mary Immaculate. Mass will be celebrated at 9 am.
Stars on the Christmas tree: is there one for your family?
After the 11:00 o'clock Mass on the last Sunday of Advent (December 17), we will be decorating the church for Christmas. We will put up a
big Christmas tree at the entrance to the church, which will be decorated with many gold stars. Each star has the name of one of the families in our parish. Please note that the names on the tree are those of registered parishioners – another good reason to pick up a parishioner registration form at the back of
the church and return it to a hospitality minister or to Fr. John.
Poinsettias for our Church’s Christmas Decoration The Christmas Season is a time when the deceased who
have been part of our lives are on our minds and especially in our hearts. You may want to give tangible
expression by bringing a poinsettia to the church for Christmas, the Feast of God’s love for all the living and the dead. You
can start bringing the Poinsettias in on Saturday, December 16.
Youth Group Spaghetti Fundraising Dinner The St. Mark's Youth Group will be hosting a spaghetti dinner fundraiser on Saturday, December 9th at 6:00 p.m. downstairs in the Church Hall. Dinner plate cost will be $10.00 per person ($5.00 for children 12 and under) with proceeds going to the Youth Group. There will also be deserts available for purchase for those who have a sweet tooth!! The youth group will be selling
tickets after each mass from now until the day of the supper. Thanks in advance for supporting the youth group.
Saint Vincent de Paul – Christmas Baskets You are all aware of the Christmas Baskets, which originate from the mayor's
breakfast. All the baskets do not necessarily come from that source. The other source is generous people or organisations that sponsor families. Now
if you would like to sponsor a family just leave your name and telephone number on the Saint Vincent de Paul voice mail (819) 685-1343 and André
Sirois will be delighted to give you all the details you might want to know in order to sponsor a family.
Sunday Missals and the Missals for Young Catholics The Church year begins every year with the first Sunday of Advent. You can pick up your Sunday missals for the upcoming church year at the entrance of
the church for $5. We also have a missal for children. Some families use these children’s missals to read the upcoming Scripture passages to their children during the week. What a wonderful way to help children become
more engaged in the Mass! The cost of the children’s missals is $8.
Envelopes for the collection - 2018 The new collection envelopes will be available for pick-up after all the Masses on December 16 & 17. Please be sure to use the current year,
as each year your envelope number may change. Thank you!!
