Support for Federal (and Federal-adjacent) workers

Events and resources

Massive and ongoing disruption in the Federal government is affecting public servants and contractors in our community. Clergy are available as always to provide pastoral care.

To support those affected, St. Mark’s will, from time to time, host events. We’re also collecting lists of resources which provide guidance and or other kinds of help.

For more information, or to join the effort, please contact sharetheburden[at]proton.me.
