Welcome To St. Mark's Lutheran Church!
 St. Mark’s is at the place where we can feel God’s guiding spirit leading us

joy in being renewed.

Bathroom Boxes – Lenten Mission Project
The South Central Synod Refugee Committee
intends to welcome ninety families to the Madison area this year, some
of those refugees will be from Bhutan and Iraq. As a part of this effort
they are collecting Bathroom Boxes. We have started filling bathroom
boxes by bringing in toilet paper, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shaving
cream, disposable razors, soap, deodorant, shampoo, towels and a shower
curtain. Each box is partially assembled and a sign up sheet to each box
for the missing item. Please join us in filling these essential bathroom
boxes.
