Ministries at St. Mark's
Communications Committee
We are responsible for communicating information about St. Mark’s, including maintaining the website, preparing the monthly newsletter, sending press releases to local news outlets advertising our events, and creating bulletin board displays. You can also follow us on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook. For questions or suggestions, or to volunteer to join the Communications Committee, contact Anali Perry at webmaster@stmarks.org.
Cursillo
The purpose of Cursillo is to help us understand our individual calling to be Christian leaders and help us to renew and deepen our Christian commitment and ministry. Active members of Cursillo attend a Three-Day Cursillo Weekend in order to focus on what is fundamental for being a Christian and to learn the Cursillo method. Anyone who is interested in learning more about Cursillo is invited to join us. Contact Monica Larsen at mlarsen498@aol.com for more information.

We provide clerical assistance and a presence in the front office for visitors to our church.

Pastoral Care
Our Lay Eucharistic Visitors bring the sacrament of Holy Eucharist to those who are unable to come to church.

We also send get-well and sympathy cards as appropriate and check-in phone calls to absent parishioners. Our group operates year round.
