Service with a Smile

On Saturday, May 3, several members of one of St. Mark's Joy Groups* showed up at The Arbor School on Blalock, just north of Memorial Assistance Ministries. (Yes, this is the same school which has two classes of their students meeting at St. Mark.)

The task? Mostly painting and cleaning.

The group worked on the "curb appeal" for some of the buildings but also did some deep cleaning of some of the equipment and decking.

It was a wonderful example of living for Christ and living in Christ! This type of service was a deep blessings to many. It allows for others to see how we are "blessed to be a blessing." It allows for others to witness the joy we have in Jesus, our Savior. And, of course, it lets our community know that we at St. Mark care.

On a personal note: Jennifer and I thank each of you there from the bottom of our hearts, too!

In God's service and yours,
Pastor Scott
