Volunteers need more members
Our mission is to maintain the flower beds scattered
throughout St. Mark's landscape, by keeping the weed
free and tidy until the ground covers and shrubs become
fully established. Adopt-A-Bed offers the opportunity
for a personal ministry made up almost entirely of
simple labor with minimal expense. If you'd like to

Junior Warden, Keith Burger, to volunteer or ask
questions.
