Purpose Statement
Jesus Christ calls us to be a joyful community that celebrates God’s love, transforms lives and is a force for justice in the world.
We are part of the Presbytery de Cristo, the Synod of the Southwest, and the Presbyterian Church USA.
Identity Statement
- We engage our faith in God with open hearts and minds. Powerful prophetic preaching, worship that is spiritually fulfilling, and stimulating education enrich our personal lives and energize our witness to the wider world.
- We are a faith community that is willing to take risks for progress on social justice. Since the founding of St. Mark’s we have embraced advocacy on behalf of civil rights, all-day kindergarten, shelter for vulnerable women and children, the Sanctuary Movement, justice and safety for immigrants, and the full inclusion of LGBTQ people in the life of the church and society. Our commitment to justice is in our DNA.
You’re In Good Company.
What a warm and welcoming community of worshipers. My husband and I have been looking for a church home that is practicing what is preached and I think we can stop looking.
This church is my spiritual home. I fine comfort and love which gives me strength to continue my journey.
A welcoming church congregation with a strong social justice mission.
Amazing, progressive, active and creative congregation.
