Serving Our Community
Our outreach program is a cornerstone of our mission, and we are committed to supporting various community initiatives that align with our core values. Through a combination of financial contributions and hands-on involvement, St. Mark's actively partners with nonprofits that share our vision for a more compassionate and just world.
In addition to providing essential resources, our outreach program strives to keep our congregation informed and engaged. Regular e-news articles are a powerful tool for educating our members about the ongoing efforts, challenges, and successes of the organizations we support. This ensures that our community remains inspired and connected to the transformative work happening through our collective efforts.
Join us at St. Mark's as we extend our hands of love and service, fostering positive change both locally and globally. Together, we can make a meaningful difference and embody the spirit of compassion that defines our faith.
