Invest In Hope: John proclaimed, “The one who is more powerful than I is coming after me.” Mark 1:7

We want to acknowledge that we follow Jesus, the one who is more powerful and yet the one who came in humility and poverty. He is the one we proclaim as God’s son, yet he lived simply and died violently. We, his followers, have been baptized into his mission of justice and peace.

UPDATE—COVID-19 (CORONAVIRUS) CLOSURE: MESSAGE FROM FR GERARDO: My dear brothers and sisters, we are holding in person worship services for Sundays, up to 50 people indoors. Masks and social distancing are required. We encourage you to bring your own copies of a BCP, bible and/or hymnal, if desired, However, we have everything you need on the screen. We will continue to provide online Wednesday and Sunday services through live streaming for those who cannot attend in person. This announcement also serves to invite everyone to come to church through a reservation by contacting the office. That being said, because we have to allow for staff and clergy, we can allow up to 45 people, on a first come, first serve basis in. We have had plenty of room each week, so if you decide last minute that you would like to attend worship services, please come to church! We have room for you! For now, Wednesdays will remain as a live stream online only with NO in-person worship. It is important to note that there still can be no coffee hour or shared meals or events involving food. For Pastoral Emergencies, please call Fr. Gerardo Brambila at 602-405- 4588. If you have additional questions, you may also call Parish Administrator, Gloria McManus at 480-560-9505 

January Tithing: St. Mark’s is still present and desperately needs your support. If you normally bring an envelope with a check to church, you can instead mail that envelope to the church office, at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, 322 N Horne St, Mesa, AZ 85203. If you usually give loose cash to the church, you can instead write a check and mail, or you can donate via the PayPal button on the right or here through FaithStreet - on the "Choose a Fund" drop down menus, scroll to choose "St. Mark's, Mesa". You can also do online payments through your bank, through the Bill Pay option. You could even set up a recurring payment through your bank if you wish, so you will not forget. God Bless and Stay Safe, Dianne Nunez, Stewardship/Finance Chair
