Volunteering at St. Mark's

Volunteering at St. Mark’s

 

Support for parish events and outreach projects give men and women the opportunity to join together and achieve a common goal.  There’s a lot of fun in the process.   Identify your willingness to pitch in and help and state your time availability.  Join a brigade of volunteers who support our hospitality events on a monthly basis.  Contact the church office at (203)966.4515. 

 

Docent Program:   Contact Dick DePatie at (203)966.4515.

 

Earth Ministries: This group of parishioners meet monthly to offer up-to-date environmental information through the Lion’s Roar. They coordinate our Earth Day celebration, work with the church office to plan programs that emphasize the importance of being good stewards of God’s creation, and attend the annual forum on Religion and the Environment (sponsored by inter-religious Eco-Justice Network in Hartford). Locally, they work with New Canaan environmental groups to preserve open space, cut emissions and do whatever is possible to slow down global warming. Contact Bobbi Bacon at (203) 966-1528.

All provide the opportunity for fellowship. Some of our liturgical ministries include:
