ADULT EDUCATION

Christian Education is a lifelong process. It does not end when a person reaches adulthood.  At St. Mark's, we have several Adult Education offerings to help parishioners learn about God and God's Word.  If you have any questions about any of these programs, please contact our Parish Secretary.

Bible Study - Bible Study with tea is offered every Thursday at 9:00 AM in the Library.  All are welcome to come to learn and ask questions about the Bible.  Various books and audiovisuals are used to give further explanation and new insight to the events and lessons of the Bible.

Agape - Agape is the Greek word for "unconditional love."  It is often used to express the divine love that Christ had for mankind.  The focus of the Agape group is on recognizing God's expressions of love in our everyday life.  Agape consists of three parts.  First, the group discusses what is occurring in each person's life and where each has seen the risen Lord in the past week.  Next, the group discusses a relevant book.  Agape then closes with Compline.  In many ways, this reflects the ancient house church setting.  Agape meets every Tuesday from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM in the Parish Hall. 

Lenten Program - During Lent, a weekly Lenten Program is held which helps to focus the congregation on particular aspects of faith and the church.  This program is different each year.  Dates, locations, and times vary each year.
