Consecration Sunday
October 19, 2008
The Consecration Sunday celebration continues to be very important in the life of the congregation. It is our annual opportunity to reflect on the generous gifts God has granted to us and to plan how we can best use them in the ministries of the congregation and in our daily lives.
This year St. Mark's cooperated with the members of our sister congregation at St. Luke Lutheran Church to provide special meal events. We catered a Lasagna dinner at St. Luke on October 12, while the St. Luke cooks provided a spectacular breakfast at 9:00 AM and sumptuous lunch after our 10:30 service on October 19.
Our guest speaker was Elisabeth (Lisa) B. Schuster, the pastor of Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in McClure. As a first-call pastor, the call to ministry is a “second career” for Lisa, as she was a high school English teacher and coach in southeastern PA before attending seminary. She then joined us for the meals in Fellowship Hall.
