Clothes for Children
An integral component of St. Mark’s Creche Service is the giving of clothes items for children. Each family brings Christmas wrapped gifts to the altar during the service with a tag indicating sex and size for the clothes item. After services, these gifts are taken to the Somerset County Food Bank to be distributed to appropriate recipients.
