St. Mark's Episcopal Church

There’s a bed with native plants and pollinators along Lewis Street - Day Lilies, Queen of the Prairie, Queen Anne’s Lace, Purple Basil and more.

And herbs — basil, cilantro, rosemary, parsley, and some for the taking for our condo-residents, in a bed in front of the rectory as you enter the parking lot.

All this, and more, thanks to our tireless vestry member in charge of the grounds commission, Beth Kujan. Thank you!

And

The annual Basking Ridge Charter Day is this Saturday from 12 to 6 PM. St. Mark’s will have our booth set up on Henry Street in town, and and we are holding a can collection for the Somerset County Food Bank. Some items that you can donate are:
- Canned Fruit/Veggies
- Canned Meat
- Canned Soups

If you know of friends or family attending Charter Day, please share this information with them! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our lovely outreach coordinator on the Vestry, Emie Williams at
(908) 202-2142.

We greatly appreciate all your donations and hope to see you at Charter Day :)

Outreach is a wonderful way to work in our community. Donate food, or sign up to serve meals at the Keansburg Soup Kitchen.

Our next collection will be at our stall on Charter Day in Basking Ridge on May 16, Saturday. Please drop by with your donations! We’ll be ready with lots of gratitude ❤️

Our next collection

Bake and rummage sales start at 9 a.m., tomorrow (Friday) and on Saturday! Proceeds go to the church. Come, show your support and tell your friends!

Wishing everyone a happy Easter filled with love and cheer.

Holy Saturday, a day of reflection and hope

Who was the guilty? Who brought this upon thee? Twas I, Lord Jesus, I it was denied thee: I crucified thee

— words by Johann Heerman (1585-1647)

See, from his head, his hands, his feet sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e’er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown?

— words by Isaac Watts (1674-1748)
