Here I Am, Send Me

And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” – Isaiah 6:8

We reprise our theme of last year as Rev. Sarah Minton begins her ministry during our Stewardship Season. She stood and said "Send me." We stand shoulder to shoulder with her to continue the wonderful legacy of St. Mary's, Christ's church on the river.

Again, we continue to live in uncertain times but we cherish God’s warm embrace to help us endure. We also are ready to stand and answer the call whenever and wherever needed to assist people in need, feed the hungry and prepare children for school. To that end we once again start our Stewardship Campaign for 2023 fiscal year. We have been very successful in starting the campaign in September so we will reprise the effort again this season. Stewardship will run from September 18th through November 6th.

This campaign provides the largest part of the church’s income, so having pledges finalized in the fall helps greatly in budget planning for 2023 and allows the start of the new year on a solid financial foundation.

You good people of St. Mary’s are always generous, and you understand the call to action “Here am I! Send me.”. We ask you prayerfully consider your pledge for 2023, and if your personal situation allows, consider an increase. Most important though is your pledge during the campaign so an accurate budget can be developed.

Included here is a Pledge card, and they will be available in the church as well. We all have much to be grateful for and your Stewardship Committee is especially grateful for you and your commitment to St. Mary’s.

Faithfully, Your Stewardship Committee,

Rick Koenig, Chair
Rev. Sarah Minton, Priest in Charge
Holly McQueen, Clerk
John Vannatta
Bob Buehn, Treasurer

Welcome First Visit Children Joining St. Mary's

Welcome and thank you for visiting our St Mary’s website! We hope you will find helpful information here about our parish. We invite everyone to “Come to the River” because we believe what you will find here is a genuine welcome, a real community of people from all walks of life who come together for worship designed to empower and nurture disciples to serve the world in Jesus’ name. St. Mary’s natural setting is infused with the beauty of God’s creation, peace and renewal. So, look around our web site. Then come and join our journey of faith and see God at work in our midst on the banks of the St. John’s River in Green Cove Springs Florida.

When you come into the church, you’ll encounter steps or a ramp that will take you to the Red doors and the front porch of the church. There might be ushers, greeters and worship leaders there to welcome you and offer you a bulletin. The bulletin will help you know what’s happening in the service. As you enter the church you find yourself in our NARTHEX (that’s Episco-speak for entryway) and that is where we keep our sign-up sheets, newcomer information and where the coloring sheets for the children are located. We look forward to greeting you!

Worship Services

We often get asked how I do I “join” St. Mary’s? The short answer is: come to St. Mary’s! We welcome anyone and everyone to join us for worship on Sunday mornings or at any of our church activities. We believe that first and foremost, membership in the Church means being part of a community that is drawn ever more deeply into relationship with God and our neighbor through Jesus Christ.”
