why
† A need for new storm glass (protecting our stained glass windows) was identified in 2020. Since that time, unrelenting water seepage has wrought noticeable damage to our church walls. More difficult to see—but just as critical—our stained glass windows have been worse for the wear. Among other risks in delaying the project further is losing the windows.

LEARN MORE
St. Mark’s stained glass windows are a veritable catechism in color and light. This year’s Appeal seeks to protect this treasure of sacred art and complete the work of re-sealing our church’s exterior from moisture infiltration. Together, we can preserve the antique beauty of our parish church and prepare the way for the restoration of St. Mark’s interior.
