Serve with Purpose

Extending Christ’s love through local and global outreach

Outreach: Mission & Evangelism

At St. Mark, we believe that serving others is a vital expression of our faith. Through the Outreach Ministry Team, we work together to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ and extend Christ’s love by offering justice, mercy, and compassion— both locally and around the world.

Whether it’s lending a helping hand in our community or supporting mission efforts everywhere, we serve with purpose and gratitude.

We believe every person is called to live out their faith through mission— to be the hands and feet of Christ in the world. Our outreach spans local, regional, and global efforts, offering support through prayer, giving, and direct involvement. St. Mark partners with PC(USA), Mission Presbytery, and other ministries to extend the love of Christ near and far.
