Saint Mark's Church & Holy Rosary Church

Welcome to the page of Saint Mark's Church and Holy Rosary Church, located in Altoona, PA. The parish of St. Jesus heal me. Spirit teach me.

Mark’s Roman Catholic Church is a friendly and family oriented church. We dedicate ourselves to proclaiming God’s Word, the dispensing of sacraments, and the building of a community of believers. We include in our mission our parish family, guests, our homes for the elderly, and our youth. Our intention is to do what Jesus asks of his disciples in the Gospel of St. Mark, “… ‘Go into the whole worl

d and proclaim the gospel to every creature’.” Mark 16:15

We emphasize Trinitarian spirituality as expressed in the following prayer:
Father use me.

Thanks be to God, this year we have three new seminarians for a total of four men in formation, our highest number in several years! With this blessing comes the challenge of funding their formation. Please give to support our future priests–and to our efforts to inspire more young men to consider the priesthood! Make a gift online at www.ajvocations.org/give or pick up special appeal envelopes from any parish in the Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown.
