St. Mark Flood Response

Hello Friends:

As the closest Presbyterian Church to our neighbors experiencing these

rising waters we need to respond.

Here is what we are imagining…

*If you wish to donate items please see list below.

Our Family Ministries (Children/Youth) will be sorting and organizing personal care items, non perishable food items and linens to deliver

to Eureka Baptist Church on Thursday May 11.

*ON WEDNESDAY MAY 10 at 5:30 we will have an ALL CHURCH POTLUCK (with Fried Chicken)

to sort items and prepare for working the following day.

*ON THURSDAY MAY 11 we will head to Eureka (or Valley Park as these Requests are changeable based on volunteer participation and that Wild unpredictable water!)

Leaving St. Mark at 8:00am and

Returning around 3 o clock.  If you wish to WORK CLEAN UP

please contact the office (636-394-2233) so that we can equip you with particulars for Thursday.

DEPENDING on the immediate needs of the community…

We are considering setting up a grill or bringing sandwiches drinks, etc.

St Mark would serve lunch to those working flood clean up….

This project will be with us for an extended amount of time there will be multiple

opportunities to serve and donate.

“They will know we are Christians by our Love!”

Pastor Susan

P.S. VBS prep planned for Wed May 10 will be rescheduled.

Red Tent planned for Thurs May 11 will be rescheduled to Thurs May 18 9:30am.
