A life of faith still calling us forward.
Father Mark Beard’s love for God, devotion to the Blessed Mother and the Rosary, and tireless care for souls continue to shape every part of this mission.
Everlasting Father, I offer You the precious Blood of Jesus, Your divine Son, joined to every Mass celebrated throughout the world today. Receive it for the holy souls being purified, for sinners everywhere, for Your universal Church, and for all within my home and family. Amen.
July 26, 1961 to August 2, 2023
Full of Grace, with the assistance of THAT’S FMB, is dedicated to honor and preserve the life, faith and legacy of Father Mark Beard.
Inspired by his unwavering love for God, his deep devotion to the Blessed Mother and the Rosary. We strive to remember his example and to continue his ministries.
We would not be Full of Grace without Father Mark!!!
His legacy lives in people and places.
It lives in a retired priest welcomed into a peaceful apartment. It lives in a student or seminarian receiving support. It lives in families gathering under St. Joseph Pavilion, in a dignified burial for a person without means, and in every story of faith rekindled through his ministry.
That is what “THAT’S FMB” means here: a recognizable spirit of faith, courage, generosity, and a determination to help save souls.
How did Father Mark touch your life?
If Father Mark was part of a miracle, conversion, return to faith, or moment you still carry, Full of Grace invites you to share it.
