Adults

Adult education is formed by the desire to:

Expand our knowledge about the scriptures and Anglican tradition
Engage in theological reflection and discussion, drawing connection between what we read and what we live
Deepen our relationship with God and one another
Dialogue with other faith traditions
Understand our call to servant leadership

2025 - 2026 Programs include:

Small group opportunities to learn and share

St. Mark's Reads led by our Justice & Advocacy and Education Team

Catch up with our current reads on the St. Mark's Reads page.

Prophetic Faith

A third cohort is forming for the Fall of 2026. We use the curriculum as outlined in Trish Reeves book, Prophetic Faith which helps us as a congregation identify where we are in justice ministry and move as we are called and led by the Holy Spirit to greater involvement in the issues of our day. Led by members of the J&A Team.
