Online Diocesan-wide CHURCH SERVICES continue - Sundays at 10:00 am

Due to the rising number of coronavirus cases, in-person worship is suspended indefinitely.  Bishop Rowe's letter explains this decision.  Online diocesan worship will be led from the Cathedral of St. Paul in Erie and St. Paul's Cathedral in Buffalo on alternating Sundays. The services are posted on Facebook and YouTube each Sunday morning at 10 a.m. and can be viewed then or any time afterward.
 
You may also join the service via Zoom (video or phone): Join Bishop Sean and people from across our diocesan partnership on Zoom at 10 a.m. on Sundays to watch the service and pray together for the petitions of the community gathered on Zoom. Use this link: https://zoom.us/j/127336938

SUMMER LUNCH for children & teens 2020                  

We had such a successful summer for the lunch program.  It was challenging due to Covid19 and special restrictions, but we had an outpouring of support from St. Mark's and the community with 38 volunteers, 25 donors, two donors for some food items. And best of all, we served 2,408 lunches over 8 weeks! Thank you to all who made it possible.  More info on the Facebook page.

 

An Experiment for the Sake of the Gospel

Our dioceses (The Episcopal Dioceses of Western New York & Northwest Pennsylvania) are on a journey to discover how collaborating can help us transform our congregations and communities through the power of Jesus Christ. In our churches, everyone is welcome, without exception.   (St. Mark's hosted Bishop Sean Rowe on Sunday, October 20 at the 10:30 am service.)
