An Invitation to Celebrate the Feast of the Nativity with St. Mark’s Anglican Church


If you are live in western Kentucky’s Jackson Purchase or the surrounding region or will be visiting the area on Christmas Day, you are invited to join the folks of St. Mark’ Anglican Church in celebrating the birth of our blessed Saviour on Sunday, December 25th. The service will be Holy Communion and will begin at 10:30 AM. St. Mark’s is located in Benton, Kentucky. The address is 1214 Mayfield Highway, Benton, KY 42025. Directions to St. Mark’s are given below.

St. Mark’s is a traditional Anglican church, affiliated with the Episcopal Missionary Church.  The Right Reverend William Millsaps is St. Mark’s bishop and rector. St. Mark’s uses the 1928 Book of Common Prayer and The Hymnal, 1940 in its worship. The hymns and service music in The Hymnal, 1940 are supplemented by music from other sources.

The Reverend Tom Hiter, a priest with the United Episcopal Church of North America, serves as a supply priest to St. Mark’s by a special arrangement between his bishop, the Right Reverend Glen Hartley, and Bishop Millsaps. Father Hiter will be preaching the sermon and administering the sacrament of Holy Communion at St. Mark’s on Christmas Day.
