Welcome! Thanks for visiting us...

Welcome! Thanks for visiting the St. Mark Goodrich website. St. Mark the Evangelist is truly a parish family; a community of faith seeking and celebrating God together.

St.Mark's is a Roman Catholic Church Community in Goodrich and the surrounding area. The beautiful spirit and caring love for one another that is encountered as soon as one steps in the door is indeed a tribute to all of the members of St. Mark.
Many people have commented that when time is taken to count the many blessings with which God has showered them, St. Mark's Parish Family is near the top of the list... their love, support and enthusiasm always come to mind and heart!
You can find us in the Southeast corner of Genesee County, in the Diocese of Lansing, Michigan (see map!). Goodrich is a small community, rural/suburban. Come visit us...we wait to welcome you with open hearts, open minds, and open doors!

From the Bishop
One of the joys and challenges of our time is to use technology and innovation to spread the message of Jesus. With that in mind, the diocesan Web site www.dioceseoflansing.org began two years ago. We have recently completed an upgrading of that site. One of the benefits of that upgrade is ...
