Music
If you love to sing and enjoy having a great time with friends, the St. Mark’s Choir is for you! We have Choir rehearsals on Sundays at 8:45 a.m. & Wednesdays at 10:00 a.m. We also have a three-octave set of Malmark handbells. We have handbell choir rehearsals on Sundays, at 8:00 a.m. This is a wonderful opportunity to being a new ministry that will truly enhance our worship experiences. There is absolutely no experience required, and you don’t even need to know how to read music. Please join us as we prepare for leading in worship each week, as well as for special musical offerings throughout the year. For more information click here. We look forward to sharing this wonderful opportunity with you!

Helping Others
2026 Calendar Collection
Again this year, St. Mark’s is collecting 2026 calendars and datebooks. The collection will then be donated to the Greatwood Senior Living Facility. A basket for the calendar donations will be in the narthex starting on Sunday, December 21 through Sunday, January 11.
Souper Bowl of Caring 2026
The Daughters of the King at St. Mark’s will be collecting canned and dried food items for the Souper Bowl of Caring. The Souper Bowl of Caring was established in 1990 as a way to help fight hunger in the United States. Please bring canned and dried foods to church on Sundays, January 18 through February 8, to help St. Mark’s feed the needy. Bins will be available in the parish hall and narthex. Our collection with be delivered to Helping Hands in Richmond. This is such a simple and easy way to support those less fortunate than us. Grab a can or two from your cupboard and support this worthy cause. Cash may be donated along with checks which need to be made out to St. Mark’s, but designated for the Souper Bowl of Caring.
Make a Difference
Our ministry fair/Rally day is so much fun! We will have our Parish Hall full of teams ready to accept new volunteers for each of their ministry areas. There's truly something for everyone! And it's not too late to take part! Click here and you will find all the information from our Fair including the form that let you know where you'd like to serve. We hope to hear from you!
Bowie Elementary - New Outreach Partner
Recently, our outreach committee has established a partnership with Bowie Elementary (Go Purple Dragons!) to serve their students, teachers, and staff. We are excited about this new partnership, as it will foster relationships within our Fort Bend community, allowing St. Mark's the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus to some of the most vulnerable individuals in our area. If you are interested in helping please contact Mary Anne Helms .
And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior…"
Luke 1:46-47, NRSV
The Finance Committee is currently working on the budget for FY2026 for ministries, staff, building and grounds maintenance, and administrative expenses. The season of offering our financial pledges to God continues. If you were away for Commitment Sunday, please place your pledge card in the collection plate during the offering. Pledge cards can also be mailed to the church office to the attention of Kimberly Hart, Parish Administrator/Bookkeeper.
What were the three gifts brought to baby Jesus by the Magi? Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh! Well, there is undoubtedly myrrh fun to be had in celebrating Epiphany with a fun game of Bad Gift Bingo, a fun spin on the classic game. Bring a gift (bad, silly, or amazing) to put up for grabs, with the winner of each Bingo game getting to select from the gathering of gifts. We will cook up a delicious Spaghetti dinner for all to enjoy. Please RSVP to Rev. Jeremy so we have enough food and bingo sheets: jbradley@stmarksfortbend.org.
The annual parish meeting will be held on Sunday, January 25, after the 10:00am service. Please join us for the meeting and a time to celebrate an eventful and wonderful 2025.
On April 5, Bishop Doyle will visit St. Mark’s to confirm and receive new members into our parish family.
