🎉 The Countdown to 65 Years Begins! 🎉

As St. Mark's prepares to celebrate our 65th Anniversary on August 9, 2026, we're taking time over the next several weeks to honor the people who have helped shape our church's story.

Today, we begin by recognizing our Charter Members; those who were part of St. Mark's from the very beginning. Their faith, dedication, and commitment helped build the foundation upon which our church continues to grow today.

đź’š Shirley Robinson
đź’™ Duane Van Horn
đź’š Marilyn Ash
đź’™ Kenneth Boelter

We are deeply grateful for their faithful service and the example they have set for generations of St. Mark's members.

Over the coming weeks, we'll continue our journey through St. Mark's history by recognizing members based on their years of membership and celebrating the many people who have made our church family what it is today.

Join us as we look back with gratitude, celebrate the present, and look forward to what God has in store for the future!
