The ReMarks

Good morning Saint Mark. As you can see, we've made some changes to our ReMarks. Enjoy!

 

This Sunday is the 5th Sunday of Easter. We will continue our Fruit of the Spirit Series this week by learning what it truly means to Be at Peace. Our sermon scripture for this week is John 14:15-27
