United Methodist Women Annual Salad Smorgasbord
Wednesday, September 18, 6:00 pm, Garton Hall
The United Methodist Women (UMW) Salad Smorgasbord is an opportunity for all women to gather in fellowship. Please bring a salad to share, as well as your table service, and plan to have a good time. St. Mark’s UMW Circle members are encouraged to call and invite someone new to St. Mark’s or some- one who usually does not attend UMW events. Offer to pick them up! It is always such a wonderful meal, program, and fellowship.
Pet Blessing and Collection for Pets Alive
Sunday, September 29, 4:00 pm, north lawn of church
This will be a simple, fun time to celebrate our pets as gifts of God. You are invited to celebrate the animals which enrich our lives at a pet blessing service at St. Mark’s. We’ll meet on the north lawn within the circle drive near the front sanctuary doors (the ones facing the bypass). All are invited to bring furry and non-furry friends in carriers, cages, or on leashes (and a bag for any pet messes!). Your pets need to be up-to-date on their vaccinations, and not have an aggressive history with other pets or people. You are welcome to invite friends and their pets, as well. If it rains, we will not hold the service that evening. Throughout September, we will be collecting donations for Pets Alive nonprofit spay, neuter, and wellness clinic of Monroe County. For their list of needs, see the Pets Alive Wishlist on Amazon.
