Re“Mark”able News - 27 July 2025

Thank you: We would like to thank Margaret Dodez of Mesa for donating a Mason & Hamlin grand piano to St. Mark's, a beloved instrument she has owned for many years. We are very grateful for the gift and pray that the music made on it will add beauty to our worship services for years to come.

Celebration of a New Ministry: Please join us on Saturday September 27, 2025 at 2:00pm for a worship service to celebrate the installation of the Rev. Lucian Taylor as the new Vicar of St. Mark’s. Bishop Jennifer Reddall will be the Celebrant at this service, and all are welcome! There will also be a reception immediately following this service in the Parish Hall.
