Upcoming events at St. Mark’s UMC
Backpack Buddies: As part of the Backpack Buddies mission, St. Mark’s United Methodist Church will again be teaming with four local churches to provide weekend meals for 22 students at Greenfield Elementary School. Over 12 million children in the United States live in food insecure households, many relying on school lunch as their sole stable source of nutrition, which they won’t be receiving on the weekend.
This semester, the church will be packing meals during the weeks of February 6, 13, and 20. Take one or more tabs from the board in the narthex and return the items by Sunday, February 5.
Souper Bowl Sunday: The TAME Ministry will sponsor a “Souper Bowl” Soup Luncheon on Sunday, February 12 immediately following the 11 a.m. service in the Family Life Center. Donations for lunch will benefit the TAME Ministry’s “Rise Against Hunger” Meal Packing in September. Chicken salad, pimento cheese and PBJs and chips and crackers will be served as well.
