"God Loves a Cheerful Giver" You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.” 2 Corinthians 9:7 Things are really getting exciting here at St. Mark's! Fall and cooler weather are in the air. Our ministries are ramping up awesome projects and events for the season. We are thinking about Thanksgiving and what it means to be thankful for our blessings from God. Everything we have comes from God. Without His moving us and prodding us, we would not be who and what we are today. He leads us down the right paths and helps us find those paths when we think we know what is best and stray. How is God calling you to respond to those blessings? How is He calling your to give to His Glory through St. Mark's? We make it easy to give through our website, by mail or through our offertory at worship. Your gifts to God will further bless his ministries here at St. Mark's and in the community. We do this together to praise God! Food Pantry: Many heartfelt thanks to all who donated toward the Thanksgiving gift cards! We served 121 families at the November 14 distribution. Thank you for being so generous! We will only be having one distribution in December, Dec. 12th.
MarkDowns Thrift Store: Check out our 75% off Thanksgiving supplies & décor sale to our parishioners on Sunday. This is our way of saying thank you to all of you who donate, shop or work in the store. At a time when gas and food prices are high, at least you can find some relief shopping for clothing, home décor and gift items at reasonable prices. Christmas items added daily. Check out our NEW section for your Christmas shopping. The Thrift store is open Fri. & Sat. 9am-1pm and Sundays 8:30–9:50am. We will be open on Tuesday November 28th at 5pm prior to the East Valley Pops Orchestra Concert.
