St. Mark Evangelical Lutheran Church

Our mission is: St. Mark Cares: welcome, worship, witness

Welcome

This is the church of Jesus Christ and there is a place for you here. We are a church that believes in the grace of God – grace saves us and frees us to live the abundant life that God intends for us.

We welcome and embrace you as a whole person. Each of us comes with questions, doubts, and histories. At St. Mark we support and encourage each other because we believe God created us and loves us just as we are, with all our imperfections.

The St. Mark Community is an inclusive church and all are welcome here. Come and see.

Worship

As a community of faith, our worship life is central to who we are as Christians. Each week we offer a variety of worship services using a Lutheran liturgy. We come together to worship God regularly and faithfully for two reasons: first because we believe it pleases God, and secondly, because worship keeps us grounded in our relationship with the Triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

In worship we pray, we sing, we read from the Holy Scriptures, we hear a message of instruction and grace and we are fed the bread of life at the Lord's table. Come and join us in worship.

Witness

As a people of faith, we are called to witness to the love of Jesus throughout our lives. The ministries at St. Mark beyond worship focus on caring and outreach. We believe that Jesus calls us all to witness His love and care in the world through our words and deeds.

Come and join us as we do God's work in Christ's name for the sake of the world.
