Ministry Opportunities
Bible Study
A variety of Bible Study programs are offered at St. Mark by the Sea.
Some examples are listed below:
-Pastor conducts a weekly bible study, often offered both in the day and in the evening, typically on Tuesday.
- WELCA conducts a monthly Bible Study for our women members.
- A Sunday school book study has been offered in between church services
-During the seasons of Lent and Advent, a soup supper with a bible study discussion is offered after a brief Wednesday evening church service.
Children's Sermon
During the Sunday Service, Pastor gathers the children to the alter and offers a unique
child-centered message just prior to his regular sermon.
Individual Tote bags with crayons and activity sheets are provided during the service to
the children, both members and visitors.
Sunday School
Sunday school classes build a solid, biblical foundation that are age-appropriate for Kg-8th grade. Classes vary from Sunday School to First Communion or Confirmation.
Pre-covid, we had two classes offering Sunday School classes to about a dozen children.
Currently, our Sunday School Program is suspended due to lack of children membership.
The program is ready to reconvene immediately upon children returning.
Pastor schedules individual instruction classes for First Communion or Confirmation instruction.
Nursery
Nursery care during the Sunday service can be provided for children 3 and under.
Currently there is no nursery, but one can be reestablished when needed.
Pre-School
The St. Mark Christian Preschool has been in operation for almost 40 years.
We provide a safe, educational, and Christian environment for about 60 children by a trained staff dedicated to preparing every child for success.
We are a Gold Seal School and have a lower teacher/student ratio because of our Apple Accreditation.
We offer a full-time program 7:30 -5:30, 5 days a week, for ages 1 – VPK.
