Mission Giving
St. Mark's contributes to "Advance Specials" annually. The Lenten and Advent envelopes have been designated as the two times a year we contribute to these needs. The following projects have been chosen by our Administrative Council as our 2012-2013 Advance Specials:
Africa University Scholarships
Global Health
Mpasa Pediatric Clinic (Democratic Republic of Congo)
Red Bird Mission (Southeastern Kentucky)
Haiti Children Project
Additional Giving at St. Mark's:
Church World Service: undergirds all of our mission work around the world. Church World Service funds make it possible for the United Methodist Church to send missionaries to many countries; to build churches, schools, and hospitals; to educate and train leaders. Our regular church budget provides for designated mission giving to World Services. Our unit of United Methodist Women also gives several thousand dollars each year to missions in support of children, youth, and families.
