Urban education is a difficult business. Time and again we have seen angry, failing, fighting students become caring young men & women. The Gospel in action changes lives. At. St. Marcus, the Gospel power is most often communicated through caring adults who invest in the lives of children. St. Marcus relies on adult volunteers who are willing to come in and invest in the lives of students. Volunteer Opportunities By signing the St. Marcus Covenant, parents receive the opportunity to contribute 5 volunteer hours.
