Art Show News
Congratulations to JoAnna Potthoff, Diana DiProfio, and Ells DiProfio, members of the St. Mark's family who have photos in the current art show.
You may bring you friends and neighbors to see the show 1-5pm every Saturday in October (13, 20 and 27). To see the show outside these hours, call the church office (858-273-1480) or contact show coordinator Judy Edelblute at 858-278-0255 or judyedel8@gmail.com.
Judy also needs hosts for the show. Each host works one shift 1-3pm or 3-5pm on one Saturday. Let her know when you can help.
Help for Puerto Rico
Rejoice! The offering to help meet human needs and for rebuilding efforts in Puerto Rico totaled $2,250.00! The total amount will be sent to UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief). Thank you for the generosity of those who prepared and served the wonderful luncheon on Sept. 16 without cost to us. What a gift they gave us, and what a gift we are sending to those who suffered greatly after a hurricane devastated the island. If you were unable to participate in the offering, you can still do so. Mark your offering for Puerto Rico relief and mail it to the church office or put it in the offering plate any Sunday.
