Sunday services are held at 8:00 and 10:00 AM. All baptized persons are invited to join us in the Sacrament of Christ's Body and Blood. Children are always welcome in worship at St. Mark's!

Each year St. Mark's Church plans special programs and events during the Lenten season.

Beginning on the 24^th of February, on Wednesdays we will gather for a Contemplative Eucharist and Service of Healing. On Fridays we walk the Way of the Cross, a simple and moving Lenten remembrance of Jesus's journey to the cross. Please see the Lenten Programs Page for a full description of these programs. The 2010 Holy Week and Easter schedule is also available now.
