 Back-to-School Sunday
Sunday, August 18th @ 10 am

To kick off the school year, St. Mark Lutheran Church wants to celebrate and bless all children, teachers, and families in our congregation and our preschool as we embark on another school year. Have your children bring their backpacks to be blessed during the service. Come and tour our Kids-on-the-Mark Sunday School classrooms. Take a peek inside our St. Mark Lutheran Preschool, and take some time to meet and encourage our new and returning teachers and director. And enjoy a fantastic lunch following the service and time to get to know other families.

July Mission of the Month
Feed My Starving Children

On August 9-10 at Faith Lutheran Church in Vista, St. Mark is partnering with other local Lutheran churches to put on a Feed My Starving Children food packaging event. Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Christian non-profit organization committed to feeding God’s starving children hungry in body and spirit. During the month of July, we will be raising funds to be able to put on this event. Together with other churches, we need to raise $24,000 and provide 500 volunteers! It will be an amazing undertaking to create over 100,000 meals to send around the world. Please consider helping us meet our goal by donating at https://give.fmsc.org/stmark.  For more information about the event, to sign up to volunteer and to track progress, visit: http://bit.ly/NCFMSC
