Join a Flower Ministry Team

Flowers give beauty, hope and solace and enhance the fabric of the church. Members of the Flower Ministry create the nave and chapel arrangements, and in doing so, give back a gift of beauty to the One who created us.

All skill/experience levels are welcome! The Flower Ministry works in teams who support each other with flower purchasing, arranging, and other tasks. This is a ministry that does not serve on Sundays, rather on the previous Thursday, Friday, or Saturday. The ministry supports flower dedications on Sundays, as well as funerals and occasional other special services.

Check out the brief video to featuring the work of Flower Ministry, and another featuring ministry leader Beatrix Roemheld-Hamm. Then scroll down to see examples of the ministry teams' amazing work (click an image to enlarge).

Contact Ministry leader Beatrix Roemheld-Hamm at flowers@saintmarks.org to learn more about joining this creative and rewarding ministry!

Give a Gift of Altar Flowers

Members of the community of Saint Mark's Cathedral underwrite the cost of the altar flowers, for either the cathedral nave or Thomsen chapel, for a specific Sunday. Such gifts are given in memory of loved one who has died, in celebration of a blessed event or anniversary, in thanksgiving for a particular blessing in their lives, or simply to the glory of God. (A contribution of $150 is suggested for each date that you request, but donations of any amount, small or large, are appreciated and will be acknowledged equally in the Sunday service bulletin.)

More details about on how to make a donation will appear on this page when they are available. Email flowers@saintmarks.org for more information.
