Dance Through the Decades

Put on your dancing shoes and join your St. Mark's family for a night of fun as we dance our way through the past 100 years! You'll have the opportunity to learn dances that were popular in years gone by, and enjoy some delicious appetizers as you watch performances by trained dancers. No matter your ability, you'll be sure to have a blast as we twist, shout, shimmy, and shake our way into the next 100 years of life together at St. Mark's.

Faith Formation - Sermon on the Mount w/ Ken Lane

Sunday's during Faith Formation Hour

Starting this Sunday, Faith Development is offering a course on Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. "In this inaugural sermon," remarks Ken Lane, the leader of the class, "Jesus presents a revolutionary understanding of God's all-inclusive love, a gift we often lose sight of in our world of meritocracy." The class meets in the Library at 9:45 AM. 

Faith and Fellowship - Resuming Monday

Pastor Matt’s Monday morning Faith and Fellowship class will begin meeting again via Zoom on Monday, May 1st. If you need directions on how to join, please contact Danielle in the church office and she can walk you through the process.  

Noisy Bucket Collection - Fresh Change

Sunday, April 30th

April's Noisy Bucket collection will be used to purchase additional items for the Fresh Change Backpack collection! Start collecting your loose change and those folded bills, and let's fill those buckets!

Fresh Change Success

Thank you to everyone who helped to make “Fresh Change” a success. Thank you to those who purchased clothes and backpacks, and those who donated money to purchase clothes, and those who gave to Noisy bucket. Your generosity was able to fill 50 backpacks with clothing for those immigrants coming out of detention centers. Our backpacks went to Border Servant Corps in Las Cruces, New Mexico. None of this would not have happened without all of those on Sunday, April 16, who put the 50 backpacks together and boxed them. Many wonderful hands made easy work.

“and loves the stranger, giving him food and clothing.” Deuteronomy 10:18

Offering Letters from Bread for the World

Thanks to everyone who joined us in the Bread for the World Offering of Letters on Sunday, April 23. We appreciate your taking time to write letters to our Members of Congress about the 2023 Farm Bill to encourage them to support legislative efforts to reduce hunger and poverty.

If you weren’t able to participate on Sunday, here’s a sample letter that you can use. Please personalize your letters, as you’d like. You may drop them off in the church office or give them to Linda Kinsinger or mail/email them directly to Senator Tillis and/or Senator Budd and/or Representative Edwards. For letters brought to the church office, Linda will see that they are hand delivered to the Members’ local offices. If you mail/email your letters directly, please send Linda a quick note (lkinsinger@mac.com) about to whom they were sent, so she can get an approximate number of letters generated by the Offering of Letters activity. Your voice matters! - Christian Action Team and Evangelism & Hospitality Team
