A note from Father Tom Gibson
Dear friends,
I am a bit overwhelmed by the loving-kindness and concern received from so many people these past several weeks. Emotions run close to the surface in my little world. I am quick to laugh while tears await right around the corner. I am slowly gaining energy but sleep a lot. My take away is... I am happy to be alive and present to the world. The doctors at the burn unit are pleased with my progress. Skin grafted to burn sites are holding and the donor sites ( my thighs) are almost healed. Picking up the pieces and rebuilding will be on going for some time. I now live with my daughter, Cecilia and her little family. She promised me a bed in the attic for my old age but has given me my own room for the time being. Her mama raised her well. So..thank you and bless you for your love and support. You are a light in the darkness. Fr. Tom The best way to help Fr. Tom and his family during this time is to pray, and donate to help him recover financially.
You may also send cards, etc. to: Fr. Tom Gibson c/o 570 Capri Road Cocoa Beach FL 32931 Thank you and blessings to you all. -- Peace, Gary+ Fr. Gary L.

The Feast of St. Mark
April 25, 2019
Dear St. Mark's Community,
We have some very good news to share with you regarding the Al Glover Family Outdoor Chapel and Learning Center. Our progress had been held up by a right-of-way overlay on the property where the Chapel and Classroom will be built. Last night, the Cocoa City Council voted to vacate the overlay, allowing us to move forward with our plans for construction. We are thrilled to report that the we have resumed work on the plan this morning and we are going full steam ahead! We still have quite a bit of work to do; however, we are optimistic that our long awaited project will be completed this fall.
We hope you are as excited about this news as we are. If you have any questions, please let me know.
