When people reach a milestone in their lives, their special events and achievements are often recognized and celebrated. In 2024 St. Mark’s Evangelical Lutheran Church is reaching a major milestone, the 200th ANNIVERSARY of the founding of the church.
Nestled in the village of Middleburgh, St. Mark’s was dedicated on May 17,1824, by fifty families led by the Reverend George Lintner. If the walls could talk, they would tell of worship services, baptisms, confirmations, weddings, funerals, Bible studies and Sunday Schools under the spiritual leadership of over 30 pastors. When challenges occurred, whether caused by mother nature or manmade, the church withstood the test of time for it continues today to be a place where God is the center of worship and praise.
A special 200th Anniversary worship service is being held at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church on Sunday, May 19, 2024, at 10:30 a.in. Come join in the celebration!
