Ecclesia
Sundays at 2:00pm
On Sundays, St. Marks in the Bowery hosts “Ecclesia,” an outdoor church ministry committed to serving unhoused and under-resourced New Yorkers. The ministry offers a 2pm Eucharist service every Sunday, fellowship, and a bagged lunch to everyone who joins. As the host parish, St. Mark’s will offer storage space and participate in making sandwiches and celebrating the Eucharist about once a month.
