St. Mark’s Justice in Palestine (SMJP) – Thank you!
April 25, 2026
We would like to thank all who donated to We Feed Gaza during our Maundy Thursday and Good Friday offertory collection. With your help, we raised $4,348! Since April 14, 2024, We Feed Gaza has served more than 133,000 people with meals and fresh water, and your contribution helps them to provide even more. Gaza is still in Stage 4, or “emergency acute food insecurity,” according to the IPC.

Didn’t Make It to Honduras last Sunday?
April 25, 2026
St. Mark’s Green Lions and Migrant Support group wish to thank the 20+ parishioners who came to the presentation about Sustainable Villages Honduras last Sunday. All attendees were impressed by what the farmers, their families, and the small mountain villages are achieving with the support of St. Mark’s and other churches. Several expressed interest in the possibility of visiting the villages either this fall or next spring. Want to learn more? Pick up one of the handouts which you’ll find in a stand on the windowsill in the foyer.

May Day General Strike
April 25, 2026
If you’ve been asked “No Kings – so what?”, join us for the May Day general strike and be part of the answer. Union jobs are being gutted in DC, as federal workers and contractors are riffed, raising the DMV unemployment rate to the highest in the nation. ICE has seized more than 20,000 people (most w/no criminal record), and the National Guard is still here. It’s time to join union members and immigrant workers, carrying the St. Mark’s banner, to demonstrate enough is enough.
