Prayer List
Mass and Intentions
Father Patrick Murphy-In Loving Memory
When Bishop Foley formed our parish, Fr. Patrick Murphy was named our first pastor. Fr. Murphy, though retired,
eagerly accepted the challenges of building the new Saint Mark the Evangelist. Fr. Murphy's reputation of
welcoming all to a challenge, involving all in every aspect of building, staffing, creating committees, funding and
organizing was well know. He was perfect for the job at hand. All who met him loved him and when he
unabashedly summoned you, you more than likely said yes.
Fr. Murphy passed away on Sept. 16, 2000, never seeing the new Church building. In his honor it was decided to
dedicate the Church on the anniversary of his passing into eternal life and celebrate an annual picnic in
remembrance.
Lord, we thank you for the gift of Fr. Patrick Murphy May he rest in peace.
RCIA WILL BEGIN THIS MONDAY SEPT. 17 at 7:00 PM IN THE PARISH LIFE CENTER!
