Be A SMALL Group Convenor

Come September, if you can host a small group, either at your home or at church, any day of the week or any time of the day, once a week or four weeks, the church Council wants you!  You will facilitate discussion, but not lead it, host, but not be in charge! Training will happen closer to the event--learn to SHARE your FAITH.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 12!

An all-church event is planned for Sunday, September 12, at St. Mark.   It will begin with a festive worship service at 10:00 am, featuring, Bishop Wayne Miller, as our guest homilist. Immediately following, we will enjoy a catered lunch, and then there will be a presentation about something exciting and inspirational that Pastor Linnea Wilson and the church council are planning for this fall!

Backpack

This fall we will begin a new ministry called the Back Pack Ministry. It came to our attention that there are children within our neighborhoods in Mt. Prospect who do not get enough to eat on the weekends. 

St. Mark is joining with an area school to fill eight backpacks with food for a weekend. The school social workers will decide who to give the backpacks to. St. Mark will collect the food, fill the backpacks, deliver the backpacks to the school, and then pick up the returned, empty backpacks.

Food that is needed includes: Individual packages of cereal, canned fruit, macaroni, canned stew or soup. For a complete list, check out the brochure in the narthex.

We need volunteers or groups to help pack and deliver the backpacks. This would be a great project for Girl and Boy Scouts, confirmation classes, seniors, small groups or individuals. Contact Cindy Decker for more information.
