What to wear to church? It is a special day that we praise and thank God in the celebration of the mass. Wear what is comfortable and what might be worn for a special family gathering. We are a family of God!
How Long is the Mass? The mass is generally no longer than 1 hour. People often come early to church to pray and to welcome one another.
Fussy Baby Room (at St. Mark) At the entrance to the church there is a room to the right that is for children who are having a fussy time. We love children but do realize there are times when a child needs to be taken out to quiet down.
Bathrooms Bathrooms at both parishes have a baby changing station. Sacred Heart bathroom is located to the right of the main entrance. St. Mark bathrooms are across from the side exit (near the altar to the right when facing the altar.) The larger bathroom has a baby changing station.

Participation There are Breaking Bread books in the pews which also have the order to follow for the Mass. The Order of the mass begins on page 3.
The song numbers are listed in the front of church on the sides and are in the same book, Breaking Bread.
As Catholics we do sit, stand and kneel at various times of the mass. Each gesture is connected to the action that is taking place.
