We at St. Mark’s are truly blessed by God. We are a debt-free church in a beautiful natural setting surrounded by growing communities. Our future is bright with many opportunities available; we are searching for a new leader to guide us in discerning the path that God has planned for us as major growth occurs around us.
Our Land and Facilities
We currently own approximately 15 acres of land (debt free). This is after the right-of-ways with the County, both for 762 expansion and the new Reading Road expansion yet to be built on the north side of the church. St. Mark’s is located on FM 762, a busy highway that connects us to new housing developments and George Ranch High School with 2,700 students, Reading Junior High School with 1,082 students and Polly Ryon Middle School with 511 students. These schools are located less than one mile to the south of our church.
Community Visibility
Our church's visibility has been enhanced due to a state-of-the-art sign and road enhancement.
Our Community’s Expansion
While surounded by growth of roads and housing, St. Mark's will be blessed to be able to retain its beautiful natural setting because of the expanse of land that we enjoy. We are near Greatwood, a large master-planned community, Del Webb Sweetgrass, a 55+ community, Bridlewood Estates and other new housing developments. Master planned developments are in the planning stage across FM 762 to the west of our church and behind our property to the east of our church. Within the next few years extensive growth in the immediate area is expected. The official Fort Bend County website states, "Growth projections estimate the county will exceed 1 million residents by 2027."
Our Church Family
St. Mark’s greatest strength is its congregation and its strong faith in God’s grace. We appreciate the best things in our past and will use those to build a new future in partnership with our new Rector. We will enthusiastically welcome all people in our community, embrace our new Rector, and take advantage of the opportunities before us.
