FREE COMMUNITY MEAL
Along with our mission to help with food and clothing,
St. Mark’s invites the community to a
FREE MEAL the third Wednesday of every month.
Folks are invited to come in, sit down,
and be served a hearty meal with a smile!
While dining, they can visit with our friendly helpers,
with each other, or just enjoy their meal and leave.
Both the food and fellowship are free.
“Come Hungry – Leave Loved”
FREE ICE CREAM SUNDAYS
The last Sunday of June, July and August,
you’ll find a cool and delicious treat
waiting for you in our parking lot.
From 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm, we are dishing up vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice cream.
(Sometimes mint chocolate chip even shows up!)
And that’s just to start!
There’s bananas!
There’s toppings!
There’s sprinkles!!
And smiles!
When it’s hot outside, we’ve got the “scoop” on how to cool off, meet others and, perhaps,
make a new friend or two!
