The group hosts events each month and tries to accommodate schedules of both stay at home mothers and those who work out of their home, part-time, or full-time. Each event offers an opportunity for the children as well as their moms. We hope the group will provide a valuable opportunity for each member to exchange advice, ideas, and friendship. There is no fee associated with “Mommies of St. Marks” but occasionally there is a cost associated with our activities.  The group is open to anyone who attends and/or is a member of St. Mark’s United Methodist Church. Look for “Mommies of St. Mark's” on Facebook!
  • INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY 
    • Should a severe weather event occur that inhibits the ministry of the church throughout the week, the standard policy for cancellation rests upon the decision made by the Murfreesboro City Schools.  Should this school system choose to cancel school activities, ministries at St. Mark's will also be cancelled on that day.  Members are encouraged to check home page of the church website for specific cancellations - www.stmarkstn.org.
