On Saturday, October 12, 2019, Brother Eric Woelfel held the 1st Annual St Mark Oktoberfest Beer Tasting. Eric organized this event to support St Mark Parish ministries. With great support from various members of the St Mark community, along with Fr Marcin blessing, this event was attended by 50 people. On hand for the event were Fr Javier and Fr Slawek.

Eric researched and selected the biers from local breweries in the Hackettstown/ Budd Lake area. Food was catered from Black Forest Inn in Stanhope. Dinner, beer and desert and a great evening of sharing were had by all.
