Another year of school is in the books, but that doesn’t mean that the St. Mark high school ministry is in hibernation until the fall! Here’s what’ll be happening this summer:
Summer Book Study
This summer, we’ll be reading and discussing a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan. We will be gathering every week to hang out and discuss what we’ve read.

Meetings will be every Thursday at 1:00pm in the St. Mark youth lounge, beginning June 11th and ending August 13th. We will not meet on July 23 because of the National Youth Gathering.
Students will be responsible for acquiring their own copy of the book, which retails for $13.99, and can be purchased from most bookstores, including Border’s, Barnes & Noble, Parable, and Family Christian Books.
Please let me know if you plan on participating by contacting me at jake@stmarkwdm.org or (515) 210-3510.
House Parties
If summer is good for anything, it’s parties! Three times throughout the summer, all high school students are invited to attend house parties hosted by families of high school students. There will be food and beverages, and we’ll be playing games and just hanging out with one another. Listed below are the dates of the house parties:
• Sunday, June 21, 7 – 10pm at the Seemann’s
• Sunday, July 12, 7 – 10pm at the Nelson’s
• Sunday, August 16, 7 – 10pm at the Madsen’s
Coffee Tuesdays with Andrew
Every Tuesday afternoon from 2 – 4pm our new intern Andrew Karrmann will be camped out at Scooter’s Coffeehouse on 63rd and Grand. You’re encouraged to stop in at any time to enjoy conversation over coffee, tea, or smoothie (they’re the best). If it’s Tuesday afternoon, Andrew will be there… and we hope you will be too!
We look forward to seeing you around this summer!
