St Mark Ocean Park Anglican Church is a community of God’s Servants, fed by the Word, led by the Holy Spirit, reaching out to all people with the Good News: of Christ’s saving Grace and Love, by our words, thoughts and actions.
St. Mark’s is a friendly, outgoing, and biblically based church with Jesus at our centre. Our congregation is made up of many people from all walks of life. Everyone is welcome here.
Through God’s grace and the power of the Holy Spirit, we endeavour to serve God through obedience to His will. We encourage the spiritual growth and participation of all ages in our congregation. We are reaching out to our local community in a variety of ways.
There is room to grow here and wonderful opportunities for you and your family.
Besides browsing our website, if there’s anything you need, we invite you to contact our church office by phone at 694-535-8841, or by email through office@stmarkbc.org
We’re happy to answer any questions you have, tell you about our community and activities, and if you wish, you may tell us about you and what you’re looking for. You may also get a copy of our Welcome Booklet. It will give you an idea of what God is doing here at St. Mark’s. Our aim is to find out what gifts God gives each of us, and then to harness those gifts for the extension of his kingdom, and for his glory.
We warmly welcome you to our church family, and may God bless you as you continue your spiritual journey. Again, should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’d love to hear from you.
