Lasting Connections With a Shared Purpose
The work of gathering is for all of us, not just the clergy. As disciples of Jesus, each of us is responsible for building up the body of the church and being evangelists of the Good News. This includes inviting new people to visit and learn more about Saint Mark’s, making them feel welcome, helping them connect with others, and providing them with opportunities to share their gifts.
These are the ministries that gather all Saint Markans together.
If you are in the age range of 22 into the 30’s, we have a group for you. Contact Tim Kingsley for information.
Women's Ministry
Our women's ministry is a gathering space for women of all ages to join in community, prayer, and fellowship, growing together in their faith and lives together. Contact Mary Lusk for more information.
Our men’s ministry is a chapter of the Brotherhood of Saint Andrew, an international lay Christian religious organization with historical roots in the Episcopal Church. All who identify as male are welcome to attend.
Library
Our library is a wonderful resource of books for all ages and genres. The books always need straightening and put back into their proper place. If you would like to help support the library, reach out to our librarian Emily Hoch for more information.

Art Gallery
Our art gallery is regularly updated with new themes of art and we always need help curating art appropriate for each theme. For more information, reach out to our resident art curator, Jay Nuhring.
Knitting Group
Saint Mark’s has had a group of dedicated knitters for many years. We have provided over 500 prayer shawls for parishioners and continue to gather twice a month for fellowship, prayer and, of course, knitting. We welcome new knitters, no matter what your skill level is. We meet on the first and third Tuesday of the month from 10:30 to 12:00 in the library. Please join us! Contact gather@ourcathedral.org with any questions.
