About the St. Mark's Foundation
"As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of God's grace."
1 Peter 4:10
1 Peter 4:10
The St. Mark's Foundation is committed to conveying the Christian message to people through excellence in worship, education, and the building of relationships. The Foundation was formed as and continues to be a non-profit organization working to continue the legacy established in 1985. We are associated with the congregation of St. Mark's Lutheran Church in North St. Paul, MN.
The Foundation's purposes are:
- To receive gifts in the form of cash and checks, marketable securities, real estate, tangible personal property, life insurance policies and other forms of gifts.
- To oversee the administration of funds entrusted to the care of the Trustees.
- To disburse the income from those funds to financially strengthen the ability of St. Mark's Church to pursue its mission apart from and outside the general operation of the church.
The Foundation Board Of Trustees - Meet The Team
A Board of Trustees formulates the Foundation's policies, manages the assets and distributes the income each year. The Board appoints advisory committees to assist in the administration of the Foundation as needed.
