Gather with us as we celebrate Christmas! We have three special services planned for Christmas Eve (Monday, December 24):

• 4 p.m. Kid-friendly worship service in the sanctuary
• 7 p.m. Family worship service
• 10 p.m. Traditional worship service

We will have one combined service on Sunday, December 30, starting at 10 a.m. It will include lessons, carols and holy communion.

Join us for an event beloved by all — the 16th annual St. Mark’s Christmas Bazaar — a joyous gathering of our congregation’s gifted artisans and the community. On the first Saturday of December, many have made it a traditional stop in their holiday preparations, stocking up on beautiful handmade gifts and crafts, fresh greens, yummy baked goods, homemade soups — even a “Pet Corner” for our special friends. (You can see a few samples in the photo gallery below). All of these things are crafted and provided by St. Mark’s congregants. We do not use outside vendors. For $15 the night before, you can get in on something quite wonderful — the Bazaar Preview lasagna dinner. This begins at 6 p.m. on Friday and includes music and early-bird shopping after dinner. Of course, the wildly popular White Elephant Sale returns, too, with gently used household items, random bargains and surprises in just about every corner. You just never know what you’ll find there! Parking is onsite and the building is wheelchair accessible. Proceeds this year support St. Mark’s capital campaign, which supports much-needed renovations to our church building. Volunteers have spent countless hours preparing for this event and it’s a wonderful time to mingle with friends and family, browse and find something unique for someone you love. Organizers say this is the last Bazaar for St. Mark’s — so don’t miss it!
