Worship ScheduleWorship Services
Sundays at 10:00 a.m. Attend in person, watch live on Facebook, or recorded for YouTube. |
Schedule change is coming up on Sunday, October 4
Since attendance has been increasing, it has become a bit more challenging to maintain social distance.
Starting on October 4, we will have two services every Sunday, at 8:30 and 11:00 a.m.
Sunday School is still on hold for now - we will notify you when we have a start date.
Livestreaming will continue on our Facebook page - since this is being done by choir members, it will align with the choir schedule. We will announce a streaming schedule in advance, so you will know when to log in.

Friends Reaching Out Activities for 2020

SMEPT - St. Mark Emergency Preparedness Team
The St. Mark Emergency Preparedness Team is a group of people who want to be proactive with being prepared for any emergency that may occur in or around our building at any time. From using the A.E.D. machines we have located in the Narthex and Fellowship Hall or the new Bleed Stop Kits (Same Location as A.E.D.) to possible safety hazard awareness, from slip and fall possibility to downed tree limbs that block the sidewalk. Meetings will be posted in the weekly newsletter.
GOALS:
Who We Are Looking For:
GOALS:
- Create Emergency Plans specific to the needs of SML.
- Identify unsafe conditions and correct them as best possible.
- To prepare the SML building and family for swift and efficient handling of emergency situations. Some of the most common emergencies include fire, major medical emergencies, minor injuries such as slip & fall or kitchen accidents, loss of utilities, severe weather conditions, unfriendly visitors or violent events.
- Increase the general safety awareness level at our gatherings and on our property.
Who We Are Looking For:
- Volunteer men, women, and youth who are willing to become more aware of their surroundings and be willing to take some training, or use their current skillset, to take a leadership role during emergencies.
