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.

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. As with all new endeavors, we are still working to determine exactly what this partnership will entail throughout the year. Yet, 1 Peter 4:10 reminds us that "each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms." Our prayer is that each person at St. Mark's will discover a way to give to this ministry. Please pray daily for the students, teachers, staff, parents, and LCISD, that they may know the love of Jesus and the grace He offers.
And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior…"
Luke 1:46-47, NRSV
We are guided this year by our stewardship theme: "Tell Out My Soul." Inspired by the words of the Magnificat, we are reminded of the call to proclaim God's greatness, not only with our resources, but through the lives we lead and the love we share. The power of Mary's song encourages us to reflect on the greatness of God in our lives and to Tell Out our Souls to our family, friends, neighbors, and even our enemies. How have you received God's mercy and abundance? How can we share such gifts with those around us as a response to God's undeserving gifts? Remember, stewardship is not merely about giving; it is also about telling out our souls in ways that echo God's generosity.
The Tell Out My Soul campaign will conclude with a joy-filled celebration on Commitment Sunday, November 9, featuring a potluck luncheon after the service, with turkey and ham provided by the church. If you have any questions, please reach out to Rev. Jeremy, jbradley@stmarksfortbend.org.
On November 9, at 10:00am come ready to make your financial commitment to the mission and ministry of St. Mark’s. Come hungry because we will celebrate the day with an all-parish potluck following our worship service after 10:00am. Sign up sheet will be in th parish hall to bring something for the potluck. Join us for this special day in the life of our church!
