HABITAT BUILD

Continue to check back for the most current habitat builds that Saint Mark's will be involved with!

Here is some general information concerning habitat builds: 

  • A morning and an afternoon shift, lunch will be served.  
  • There is no skill level required.   
  • Ages 16 and up can participate. There will be a Habitat supervisor on site and sometimes, the homeowner and family will be helping out. There will be painting, landscaping and other projects.

GRACE PLACE

Grace Place is a ministry outreach to the poor, hosted by Galloway Memorial United Methodist. Several people from our congregation serve food and build relationships with the people of Grace Place. Each Wednesday morning, there is a worship service with the preached Word, music, Holy Communion, and a meal. January is "Sock To Grace Place" month each year. We'll be collecting men's socks to keep them from frost bite during cold weather. For more information on this, contact Rev. Ryan McGough at ryan@saintmarksum.org

 

STEW POT

Stew Pot is a community wide soup kitchen that Saint Mark's takes part of several times a year. Look for the next time we will be serving at the Stewpot Food Pantry. If you would like to help serve, please contact our church offices: 601.992.2131

We welcome donations of Macaroni & Cheese, Peanut Butter, Jelly, Dry Cereal, Dry Beans and Canned Meat.  Please place them in the Mission Boxes in the Lobbies of the Sanctuary and the CLC. Prayers for this Mission are always needed and appreciated.

 

LOCAL MISSIONS UPDATES, REPORTS, & UPCOMING OPPORTUNITIES


Every November, folks deliver around 75 turkey dinners to Seniors in Rankin County.  Countless coats will be donated to the Rankin County Human Resource agency with your help. Our Sunday school classes are constantly involved in particular local missions.

Our entire church family and community participate in Rise Against Hunger each February where we package meals for distribution worldwide.
 
We'll continue our work at Grace Place, the Stewpot Food Pantry, Habitat for Humanity, the Rankin County Seniors, Honduras and the Stewpot Serving Line.
