Invest In Hope: Moses cried out to the LORD, "What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me." Exodus 17:4

Being a leader isn’t always easy. Stewards are called to be leaders in faith, which involves sacrifice, courage, humility and a commitment to the words of Jesus, “What you do to the least of my brethren, you do to me.”

Invest in Hope Matching Capital Campaign: We have a family in our parish that is willing to move their bequest forward from their deaths into 2020, where it will be sorely needed. But they would also like to have other parishioners participate. So they invite and challenge us to give to the campaign, and they will match our donations dollar for dollar, up to $50,000 on their part. Write "Match" in the memo line of your check to identify your contribution or if giving cash, place in a giving envelope found in the pews and write your name and “match” on the front.

Life Line Screening: A leading provider of community-based preventive health screenings, is pleased to offer a preventive health event at St. Mark's Episcopal Church on 3/21/2020. Five screenings will be offered that scan for potential health problems –see flyer in Narthex for more information. Register for a Wellness Package which includes 4 vascular tests and osteoporosis screening from $149 ($139 with our member discount). All five screenings take 60-90 minutes to complete. There are three ways to register for this event and to receive a $10 discount off any package priced above $129, please call toll-free 1-888-653-6441 or visit http://lifelinescreening.com/ communitycircle or text the word "circle" to 797979

Daughters of the King Shoe Drive: Members of the DOK are asking for gently worn or new women’s shoes (please no sandals, flip flops or heels) for women leaving prison as some have no shoes when they are released.
