Denomination: Lutheran
St Mark's is a small, stable parish in a small, stable town. After two years of soul searching, our congregation carefully and prayerfully decided we could no longer afford a full time pastor. An extended intentional interim period has brought us renewed vitality as a congregation in mission for others, enthusiastically led by our pastor, an Anglican priest. About a third of our regular Sunday worshipping community of 55 is children under the age of 14, for whom we recently established a Godly Play programme. In all, we are a happy and devout, forward-looking Christian community that worships the triune God richly and generously.
