Commitment to Spiritual Growth
St. Mark’s Lutheran School supports the mission of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church of growing in grace through God’s Word. We teach the students of our school that their spiritual growth takes place when they spend time studying and learning the Word of God.
Church & Sunday School Attendance
Regular attendance at worship services and Sunday School is a vital part of every child’s training. Each teacher, by word and example, encourages regular church attendance. In keeping with God’s command to hold His Word sacred and eagerly hear and learn it, we encourage parents to foster spiritual growth by bringing their children to church and Sunday school.

Chapel & Mission Projects
On Wednesday mornings St. Mark’s has chapel services in the church for all students. We invite parents to participate in these meaningful worship opportunities. Our school has a mission offering program to make our students aware that there are many people in the world who need to hear the saving message of the gospel. We collect an offering for missions at our Wednesday morning chapel services to give everyone an opportunity to support mission work and to learn good habits of Christian Stewardship. Offerings are sent to different mission opportunities according to selected semesters of instruction.
Singing in Church (School Choir)
Singing offers our children a wonderful way to praise God and proclaim his Word. As a part of our school’s program of Christian education, students prepare songs to sing in church. Our choir is named Voices of Praise. We encourage parents to have their children present when the choir practices and when their choir is scheduled to sing in church.
If a student is not able to attend a worship service in which their choir is scheduled to sing for reasons such as illness, family circumstances, emergencies, or special obligations at their home church, parents should show courtesy by excusing their child in writing to the teacher/director. We appreciate knowing this as far in advance of the worship service as possible.
