Who we are

Serving the community since 1962, St. Mark's Episcopal Church & School is a welcoming parish community in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. St. Mark's School is a co-educational day school providing an exceptional academic program for children in PK2 through eighth grade.

Our Mission

The purpose of St Mark's is to glorify God, nurture and serve the community,
and share in the life of the risen Christ.

Our Vision

St. Mark’s vision is to be a beacon of faith, hope, and light,
and a nurturing spiritual home for all who seek a deeper relationship with God.

Congregational Core Values

Proclaim our belief in God, the Father almighty. Jesus Christ, the Son of God. And in God, the Holy Spirit.

Continue in the apostle’s teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in the prayers.

Persevere in resisting evil, and, whenever we fall into sin, we will repent and return to the Lord.

Proclaim by word and example the Good News of God in Christ, seeking and serving Christ in all persons, loving our neighbors as ourselves.

Strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being.
