Care Chorus
This new group assembles a small group of singers who learn a few easy hymns and folk songs to share with members of our church community who are homebound. The blessings are great even though the time commitment is light — one practice and one visit each month.
Crafting Adventures
Crafting Adventures, formerly known as the Crafting Circle is working on many items, Prayer shawls, and items of personal choice. This group meets on the third Monday of each month in Room 1. Completed shawls are blessed and given to those who have experienced loss, crisis, or an event to celebrate. Knitters and crocheters are also invited to attend the Wednesday afternoon St. Mark’s Quilters and Crafters to work on prayer shawls, etc.
