May your presence and beauty be found in every note, and may the words that are sung reach the hearts of your people so they will draw closer to you.

May your Spirit guide us through every measure so that we might be the instruments of your peace, and proclaim your glory with glad voices.

Amen



 

Mission Statement

The mission of Music Ministry at St. Mark Church is to unify and deepen our communal prayer.  Music is integral to the celebration of any liturgical event. While the voice of the assembly is the primary voice in any liturgy, there are many additional ways to offer your gift of song to the glory of God and to draw others into participation in the Church’s worship, including serving as an accompanist, choir member, cantor, or other instrumentalist.  
Please contact Kathy Smith, Director of Liturgy and Music, for further information on Music Minsistry at St. Mark Church.
 Email: ksmith@stmarklancaster.com   Office Phone:  (740) 653-1229 

Copies of Journeysongs 3 are still available for dedication.
Take this opportunity to honor loved ones, living or deceased, or to commemorate a special event by sponsoring a hymnal!   
Each sponsored hymnal will contain a bookplate that reads:
              "Given as a gift by
                  (your name)
                 in the name of
                (person or event)."
This is an ongoing project - contributions can be made at any time.  The cost is $16 per hymnal.  Put your check in the collection basket, drop it off at the parish office, or pay via online giving. Please be sure to include your name and the name of the person/event you are commemorating.  Contributions are tax deductible.  Checks payable to St. Mark Church.  For further information, contact Kathy Smith at ksmith@stmarklancaster.com or call the office at 740-653-1229.
