SEASONAL CELEBRATIONS & ACTIVITIES

They are like trees planted by streams of water,
which yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither.
In all that they do, they prosper.
Psalm 1:3

Lenten Soup Supper & Learning Series

During the season of Lent, we gather on Wednesday evenings at 5:30 for a simple meal of soup and bread. The meal is followed by a study on a particular book or topic from 6:00-7:00 p.m. The 2025 topic will be announced shortly. Will you provide one of the five suppers? Or would you like to help serve and/or clean up after the meal? Please let us know! We are in the planning phases now. 

2024 Annual Christmas Pageant
Many thanks to St. Andrews-Sewanee School for hosting the annual pageant of St. Mark & St. Paul! We had a wonderful time! The pageant carols were accompanied by the Children's Choir (directed by Wyatt Poe), and Sewanee Strings (directed by Tammy Hurd). The opening carol was played by Jaxon Rudder on piano. Thank you to all our sweet children and the patient adults in their lives!

See the January newsletter for 2025 pageant photos.

And of course the pageant filmed during the first year of the pandemic is infinitely re-watchable! Stay to the end for bloopers and historic photos.

Vacation Bible School

In early summer, the parish holds an intergenerational learning series called VB-Us. Our take on Vacation Bible School, VB-Us brings the community together for a good meal, singing, and chatauqua-style learning centered around lectures, crafts, skits, and stories.​​​
