We are a Reconciling in Christ Congregation
We, the people of St. Mark Lutheran Church commit to being a Reconciling in Christ Congregation. We welcome because Jesus shows us how to welcome in the Gospels, regardless of race or culture, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or relationship status. As followers of Christ, who calls us to reconciliation and wholeness, we welcome all who are seeking God. We are committed to the work of anti-racism, bringing justice for all God’s beloveds. We welcome you without regard to addictions, physical or mental health, imprisonment, socio-economic circumstances, or anything that too often divides us. Our unity is in Christ.
What We Believe
We celebrate laughter, joy, and the gift of fun as vital expressions of life and faith in Christ.
Life is a journey, and we are called to walk it with hope, purpose, and a spirit of celebration!
We worship God, whose love for us is steadfast, boundless, and unconditional.
We believe in the triune God: the Creator who forms and sustains all life, the Savior who brings redemption and healing, and the Spirit who inspires, empowers and guides us in love and justice.
The Bible is the inspired Word of God—a living story of grace, love, and liberation. It speaks to us across time, offering hope, peace, and strength for daily life. At its heart is the good news of God’s grace—a gift that is freely given to all, assuring us that we are loved, forgiven, and cherished.
We believe that loving God and loving others is the foundation of a life filled with joy and purpose. This transformative love has the power to renew individuals, restore relationships, and bring healing and justice to the world.
At St. Mark’s, we are a Reconciling in Christ congregation committed to being a safe and welcoming space for all. We affirm that every person is created in God’s image and is beloved, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, or ability.
We stand with those who have been marginalized and work for reconciliation, inclusion, and equity in all we do.
We are a community of faith, gathered to share in God’s love and live out our purpose: to connect people to God, one another, and the world through worship, service, and authentic relationships.
All are welcome here.
No matter who you are, where you’ve been, or where you are on your journey of faith, you have a place in our family.
