Welcome to St. Mark's

St Mark's United Methodist Church picture

St. Mark’s is a community of people where absolutely everyone receives a warm welcome and an invitation to be part of a movement to transform the world with the power of God/’s love. Everyone is encouraged to be on a journey of faith and to share that journey with others.

Below is a link to a "Free For All" blog where I am looking for honest and open conversation about where we are going as a community. Please let me know your thoughts, whether you are a long-time church person, or somebody coming to this web site for the first time. Your insights are important to me.

Traditional Worship 9:30am

The traditional worship service at St. Mark's begins at 9:30am Sunday morning.  Featuring St. Mark's outstanding Chancel Choir and the Hupalo & Repasky Pipe Organ,  this service highlights the rich traditions of our United Methodist heritage through word and music. Come be inspired by our dynamic ministry staff, and listen to our wonderful pipe organ, join in the singing of traditional United Methodist Hymns and enjoy the ringing of the Bells of St. Mark's.

Children are a welcome part of all aspects of St. Mark's. During the 9:30am service childcare and Sunday School are offered. If young worshipers attend our services, ask an usher for a red activity book filled with coloring pages, word searches and other activities to keep our youngest worshipers occupied.

 

Contemporary Worship 11:00am
