The success of the Summer Classic depends on event Sponsors and donated auction items This year's Summer Classic is different because we are partnering with an event planner and promoter, En Fuego Events, founded and operation by Andrés Nuño. Much of the energy we spent on details of producing the event we can now spend on making it successful by gathering auction items and event sponsors. Our silent and live auctions both need additional auction items and event sponsorships are available at the $1,000, $2,000, $5,000, and $10,000 levels and make a big difference to how we are able to serve our community in the year ahead. Do you know individuals and businesses to contact to ask them to be a part of supporting our area community through all that St. Mark's does? For donation forms (we can send you a PDF to print or pass along – or make sure you have the printed forms) please contact our Business Manager, Leslie Zuller at leslie@smitv.org. It's time!
St. Mark's 2022-23 Stewardship Campaign Navigating Together officially launches! Recent years have meant drastic changes in how we gather, worship, serve, and commune. St. Mark's has navigated through both the toughest of times and the joyous of celebrations in our almost 100 years of existence because we do it together. Today, on Palm Sunday, the Stewardship Committee announces the launch of the 2022-23 campaign - Navigating Together - to promote long-term financial sustainability and growth that will ensure another 100 years of St. Mark's' vitality and relevance in the Santa Ynez Valley. Financial support is vital to carry out the church's work and ministry. We cannot know what lies ahead but we remain confident in the assurance of God's abiding and steadfast love. We prepare for the future with prayer, planning, and the support of St. Mark's parishioners so that the church keeps doing what love requires from a ministry of service - feeding God's sheep. The Stewardship Committee recognizes that this is a time of significant financial need for St. Mark's, and over the coming weeks we plan to visit every member of the church to talk about how we can all contribute to the sustainability of St. Mark's through time, talent, treasure, and additionally the gifts of ties (inviting others) and testimony (inspiring others through your story of St. Mark's). To proactively set up a visit, please contact Bill Connell at (805) 688-2121 or LynnRae Dunn at (415) 272-6013 Your commitment to Annual Giving means St. Mark's continues to be the body of Christ through our ministries, our work both inside and outside the walls of the buildings, and our care for one another. We hope you will joyfully accept a visit from the Stewardship Committee as together, we navigate what lies ahead.

Participate in any of St. Mark’s Ministries
At. St. Mark’s, anyone is welcome to participate in anything. Everything we do is a ministry of imperfection. We aim for perfect, but get whatever we get (sometimes VERY good!), and thank God that everything we do is handmade and a work of love.
