St. Mark’s welcomes families of all kinds into our vibrant and diverse community of faith. We believe that children and youth are a central part of our community life. Children, youth and families are encouraged to participate in a variety of opportunities for worship, education, service and fellowship.

Sunday Mornings

Nursery Care is available for children through the age of 5. The nursery is located upstairs, just
to the left of the main entrance, and is staffed by trained childcare folks with necessary clearances.

Children’s Chapel is offered each Sunday for children in kindergarten through 5th Grade. Near the
beginning of the service, children are invited by Pastor Sarah to come forward for a sending prayer
before heading into Children’s Chapel. They will return in time for communion.

You are free to join at any time.

Contact Pastor Sarah for more information.

Erie Episcopal Kids & Youth

Erie Episcopal is pleased to offer new opportunities for our kids (kindergarten – 4th grade) and our youth (5th – 9th grade). Erie Episcopal Kids will give kids and their families a variety of activities to engage the whole family in learning, holiday events and just plain fun. This is the place where parents can mingle, kids can be comfortable in the church environment and community can blossom. Erie Episcopal Youth presents our tweens with a space to gather, ask questions, learn through worship and service and probably have some fun along the way!

Family Retreat: Faith, Fun, & Connection

Could your family use some joyful, restorative time together?

Join us at the Cathedral for special Family Retreats designed for families with children ages 2-10.

We’ll explore a familiar scripture story through imaginative play, artwork, Christian meditation, and other age-
appropriate activities. Each experience will encourage meaningful sharing between children and their
accompanying adult. For more information contact Jessie Hubert.

Erie Episcopal Youth

We are excited to invite all 5th–8th grade students to be part of Erie Episcopal Youth—a fun and welcoming group where young people can grow in faith, ask meaningful questions, serve their community, and enjoy time with friends.

Join us on Sunday, May 17 at St. Mark’s – in their newly renovated youth room!

We’ll begin with a provided dinner at 5:00 P.M. and conclude by 7:00 P.M. All middle school youth are
welcome—whether you’ve joined us before or are coming for the first time. We can’t wait to see you there!
