Spotlight on Parishioners Pam and Tom Clark
Pam was led to Saint Mark's in 1987 by her husband Tom. They found a profound spiritual home for themselves and their five children. Through all the years within this community, the one constant is the welcoming Christian spirit that is conveyed to all who enter. They are both grateful for the gentle guidance from their Saint Mark's family that has supported their faith journey.
