Newcomer Series - Please join us for our Fall Newcomer Series beginning next Sunday, Oct 5th at 9:30 in the Sanctuary.  All new members are encouraged to attend to learn more about the history of the Episcopal Church, the history of St. Mark’s, what we are about today and the plans for the future of our parish.  This is a wonderful opportunity to meet other new members and to discover your place at St. Mark’s.  The series consists of six non-sequential classes and ends with a welcome breakfast.  Therefore, if you missed any part of the last series, please feel free to join us for that piece.

Are there pets in heaven?  Absolutely, especially if they’ve been blessed.  Come with your family creatures caged or on a string and have them prayed over.  Treats for all, ice cream for humans.  Join us for the Blessing of the Animals next Sunday, October 5th at 4:30pm on the Green.
