Loving Community
Grounded in Faith
Energized by Service 

Our Vision

To be a church where every person is welcomed, every generation grows in faith, every gift is called into service, and our neighbors experience God's love and grace. 

Our Mission

To glorify God, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, provide opportunities for all people to know, love, and follow Jesus Christ.

Our Congregation

Our congregation is passionate about Jesus Christ, glorifying God through Christ-centered worship, which is central to our corporate life. We seek to grow the Kingdom of God through opportunities for education, service, mission, fellowship, and witness.

Members build on St. Mark’s strengths to serve one another, the growing Boerne community, and communities beyond our usual borders. These strengths include: a welcoming atmosphere for visitors; a sense of fellowship and family among members; both contemporary and traditional worship services grounded in a Biblically-based message; a strong Christian Education program for children, youth, and adults, where spiritual growth is nurtured; an on-campus Early Learning Center that provides a Christian-based education for Boerne preschoolers; an uplifting and diverse music program; an active local mission program; and a compassionate pastoral care ministry.

St. Mark members are dedicated individuals committed to sharing the love of Christ and the Word of our Lord within the congregation and throughout the community. We are a body of generous, faithful, and engaged followers of Christ. With a strong commitment to service, we engage in significant, purposeful, and meaningful missionary efforts that help others and bring the Gospel of our Lord to those in need.

Our Values

St. Mark Presbyterian is a church that stands firmly in the heart of the Reformed Tradition.

Where spiritual growth is nurtured through worship, education, service, and fellowship.

Where members embrace one another—and those in need—through genuine acts of kindness, support, sharing, and care.

That welcomes those who are new: come for a visit, stay for the journey.

What We Believe

The following is from the Brief Statement of Faith.

The Presbyterian denomination shares many beliefs with other protestant denominations in that we affirm the Scriptures to be the written Word of God and the Trinitarian understanding of God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. But it is distinctive in two major ways.

  • Trinity – God the Father, who is over us, God the Son, who is with us and for us, and God the Holy Spirit, who is in us and among us.
  • Incarnation – In Jesus Christ, the Word of God became flesh and dwelt among us. In Jesus Christ, the Triune God is revealed.
  • Affirmation of God’s grace as revealed in Scripture.
  • Salvation by grace through faith.
  • Scripture is the Word of God, and our only rule of faith and obedience.
  • The proclamation of the Gospel for the salvation of mankind.
  • The shelter, nurture and spiritual fellowship of the children of God.
  • The maintenance of divine worship.
  • The preservation of the Truth.
  • The promotion of social righteousness.
  • The exhibition of the Kingdom of Heaven to the world.

The Presbyterian Church has two sacraments: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper, which are understood to be instituted by God and commended by Christ. Sacraments are signs of the real presence and power of Christ in the Church and symbols of God’s action.

In Baptism, the Holy Spirit binds the Church in covenant to its Lord. Baptism is the sign and seal of God’s grace and covenant in Christ received only once. Presbyterians baptize persons of all ages: confession of faith for the adult and baptism for their children. The Lord’s Supper is the sign and seal of the eating and drinking in communion with the crucified and risen Lord. The invitation to the Lord’s Supper is extended to all who have been baptized, remembering that access to the Table is not a right conferred upon the worthy, but a privilege given to the undeserving who come in faith, repentance, and love.

In life and death we belong to God. Through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, we trust in the one triune God: the Holy One of Israel, whom alone we worship and serve.
