Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every sickness. Matthew 9:35 Jesus’ healing ability continues today in the stewardship of all the medical staff and caregivers who attend to people in their time of need. Thank to each of them for their skill, devotion and love! “Do The Work Of The One Who Sent You” Jesus said, “We must do the work of the one who sent me.” John 9:4 We are entering the summer months where some of our St. Mark's family has returned to their cooler homes, and where some retreat to vacations or hibernate during the hot weather. You will be happy to know our air conditioner in the main church has been repaired, after waiting many months for the new unit to arrive. You can come to church on Sunday and enjoy the comforts of home with your family and friends, while you praise God and break bread together. This is a time when it is SO important to remember to make you heart-felt giving donations to St. Mark's. We are still here even if you are not. The many ministries you love are still going strong. We need your continued support of time, talent and most importantly treasure. You can give by cash, check, or credit card online. Go to our website and click on either PayPal or FaithStreet to donate. You can set up a recurring payment so you don't forget when you're out of town. Every penny you donate is an investment in the future of St. Mark's. We cannot do it without you! Veterans: We are revising our bulletin boards. If you are a veteran, please submit your picture, branch and years served to the church office. There will also be an envelope in the narthex. Thank you! Altar Guild: The Altar Guild needs new members. Would you like to join us in preparing the altar and sanctuary for church services, Holy Communion, and other observances? This is a fulfilling as well as educational ministry. Call Diane Lewis, 480-414-5497. Thank you! MarkDowns Thrift Store: Check out the St Marks Facebook Page for photos of the Thrift Store. Thanks for all your support. Support our church with your shopping, donations, and offering to volunteer where you can with the thrift store. See Diane Lewis for more information. We also welcome volunteers who basically want to help us from home, doing such projects as ironing, sorting through our greeting cards, all at the leisure of your own home. Open every Friday and Saturday 9:00 to 1:00 and in conjunction with the Food pantry distribution schedule every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month from 8- noon. Show your love by supporting our thrift store! Sunday School: Sunday School is winding down. Here are some important dates to remember:
Food Pantry: The Food Pantry returned indoors this May! It felt good to be out of the heat; to be able to spend time with families face to face; to refer them to resources and allow them to make food choices! Our set-up day will be Monday, June 12th and June 26th. Our set-up time will be 8am-11am. Our Distribution day will be June 13th and June 27th. Our distribution time will be from 8:30 am-10:30 am. We always need volunteers! Come join us in doing God's work! May God bless you for supporting St Mark's Food Pantry! Daughters of the King: The Daughters of the King would like your help in supporting a local domestic abuse center. This center places a strong emphasis in encouraging families to look for positive aspects in their lives, despite going through tremendous hardships and struggles. One way to assist them is to provide gratitude journals. We are going to decorate these journals and fill them with positive affirmations. We are asking help in providing any of the following: journals, individually wrapped pens, PA jagged of water color pencils, stickers and sheet protectors. We also will be collecting small travel sized hygiene items. For questions, contact Cyndi Armstrong or Mary Twentyman. CURRENT SERVICES: You can join us for services live at the following times, or watch the recording any time at your convenience:
