Christmas Pageant and Christmas Caroling

December 14, 2025

​

This year's Christmas Pageant is being organized by Gay deMontel.  We will be using The Brown Paper Bag Pageant this year, which means everyone is invited to participate.  Those who want a simple role will receive a brown paper bag with a costume the morning of the Pageant.  A few roles requires advanced preparation and Gay will coordinate them.  If you want a specific part, please reach out to Gay at (361) 944-4544.  This promises to be a fun one!

​

After the Pageant, we will head over to the Corpus Christi Nursing and Rehabilitation Center next door to sing Christmas Carols for the Residents.

Ministry in Partnership

with Timon's Ministry

​

Over the course of many years, St. Mark's has partnered with Timon's Ministry in various ways. Timon's goal "is to provide a hand up, empowering individuals to regain their strength, dignity, and ultimately, their place in the workforce." Our women's reunion group has discovered several ways to serve this community.

 

Members of the group have been volunteering their time at Timon's Ministry working in the Clothing Closet organizing items and visiting with people. The group has asked for help with their efforts through any of the following ways:

• Donating band aids, bandages, and gauze    

• Donating clothing, especially men's shirts, jeans, or athletic shoes

• Donating travel size deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, bars of bath soap, body wash

• Donating toothbrushes

• Donating items for to-go food bags: tuna and cracker packs, granola bars, chips, bottled water, etc.

• Sorting clothing on Mondays from 8:45 - noon.

You may leave your donations in designated boxes located in the entryway to the sanctuary and in the fellowship hall. Contact Pam Cater at (361) 446-4498 for more information.
