St. Mark's ministries matter. We know as said in a recent talk that Love is an Action Word. And we are active in our work in the community - especially with CARITAS whom we have a long and lasting relationship.

Know the signs however subtle and say something.

💜 October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Everyone deserves to feel safe in their relationships, their homes, and their communities. Supporting survivors means listening without judgment, making space for people to seek help on their own terms, and making sure resources are accessible to those who need them.

If you or someone you know is looking for support, these Virginia organizations offer resources and services:

💜 Virginia Anti-Violence Project: virginiaavp.org
💜 Virginia Sexual & Domestic Violence Action Alliance: vsdvalliance.org
💜 Safe Harbor: safeharborshelter.com
💜 YWCA Richmond: ywcarichmond.org
💜 Latinos in Virginia Empowerment Center: latinosenvirginia.org

Building safer communities takes all of us. We can start by believing survivors, respecting their choices, and making sure no one has to navigate these experiences without support.

Remember Matthew and act to make the world a better and safer place

On the evening of October 6, 1998 , Matthew Shepard visited the Fireside Lounge and the events that followed led to his death in one of the most infamous LGBTQ+ hate crimes in American history. Matthew died on October 12 at 12:53 a.m. at Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado with his family by his side.

In honor of his legacy, we hold space on this day for reflection and remembrance.

To do this is appalling - I cannot imagine how anyone would condone this.

(RNS) — ‘The public ex*****on even of one who has done grave harm will only further undermine the moral fabric of our nation and be a blight on the conscience of its people,’ Archbishop Paul S. Coakley said in a statement.
