St. Mark's & St. John's Episcopal Church

About this church

St. Mark's & St. John's Episcopal Church in Jim Thorpe holds Sunday worship at 9 a.m. in its main sanctuary; the time has changed before, so confirm it on the website before visiting. Services follow the American Episcopal tradition, built around Scripture readings, hymns and a sermon, and the church describes them as family friendly and open to people of any religious background. The bulletin, lessons and Prayers of the People are posted online for those who want to follow along.

Children are welcome in the service, and a church school runs from September through May with a classroom and a recently renovated Children's Chapel; most years the children also put on a Christmas play. The outreach ministry runs a food pantry for neighbors facing hunger and a monthly food drive that collects a different category of items each month, with donations accepted in the Blessing Box or at the church. The parish also hosts community suppers, seasonal gatherings and local music events. The building is a National Registered Historic Landmark, and guided 30-minute tours covering its history, architecture, Tiffany windows and Caen stone reredos are offered in season for a small fee, with private tours arranged by phone. Tour days and hours vary by season.
