Come March! New Canaan Parade Celebrating America 250

St. Mark’s is proud to participate in this special patriotic community celebration, and we hope parishioners of all ages will join us as we march together!
This event continues the May Fair theme – gathered in joy. This too is a joyful, all-inclusive, multi-generational event that reflects St. Mark’s long-standing role in this community. St. Mark’s dates back to 1764 – making our church 262 years old and 12 years older than the United States itself.
Families, friends, children, grandparents – everyone is invoted to decorate bikes, wagons, strollers, scooters, and themselves in festive patriotic and/or St. Mark’s attire – your choice!
