St. Mark's Church - Burlington, Mebane, North Carolina

Have you ever thought about going on a mission trip - whether international or national? Have you felt God’s prompting in your heart to go outside your “comfort zone” and serve your neighbor throughout the world with the love of Christ? What has kept you from being obedient to God’s prompting and to take that leap of faith, to go to a country where people live under extreme poverty, daily hardships and many without the hope of Christ? St. Mark’s Church has always been intimately involved in supporting world-wide missions.

There are now opportunities for those who call St. Mark’s Church home to become involved themselves in God’s Kingdom work through international short- term mission experiences. St. Mark would like you to prayerfully consider doing at least one mission experience in your life time. God will use this experience to change your heart and impact your life in an incredible way. On this page you will find mission opportunities coming up in 2007 along with the contact person. We look forward with great anticipation to serving “our neighbor” with you throughout the world.
