It can be daunting getting started at a new church. Whether you’ve never been to a church before or been to many, we hope you’ll feel right at home at St Mark’s in no time. Come along on a Sunday to get started, or if you’d like to get in touch beforehand with any questions, feel free to contact us at the link below.

We meet every Sunday at 9:30AM and 6:30PM on the UNE campus in Armidale. Everyone is welcome and we’d love to meet you!

If you have questions about St Mark’s, feel free to reach out & connect with us. We’d love to hear from you!
Newish Lunch
A regular lunch for anybody who is newish to St Mark’s, where you can hear more about the church, meet the Pastors, ask all your questions and find out how to make St Mark’s your church home. Check out the events page to see when the next Newish Lunch is on, or simply contact us below to let us know you’re keen to come!
Taste & See Dinners
Come and explore the timeless message of Jesus over four meals. Whether you’re exploring for the first time, new to faith, or just new to our church, we’d love you to join us. We’ll dive into what Christians believe about God and the world, and give you opportunities to ask your questions.
Uni Students & Young Workers
Finished school and getting started in adult life? We’ve got heaps on for Uni Students and Young Workers aimed at growing and encouraging our young adults both on and off uni campus. Come along!
Kids
Helping Preschoolers and Primary Schoolers to live well, love Jesus, build great friendships, and have stacks of fun!
We run a number of ministries for Kids – including Jive & Play on Friday mornings as well as MiniKids or Kids Club on Sunday mornings during 9:30 Church.
Youth
High School is such a special time in life – and we want to be there for our High Schoolers, giving guidance and encouragement as they investigate Jesus and follow him.
We have a whole stack of things for youth throughout the week, including Youth Group on Friday evenings, JTs on Sunday morning during the 9:30AM service, and Senior High Bible Study on Sunday arvos before the 6:30PM service.
Frequently asked questions
We’re an interdenominational evangelical church, which means we welcome people from ALL church backgrounds. ‘Evangelical’ just means we take the Bible seriously, we believe it’s the word of God, and we’re committed to teaching it faithfully each and every week. We are overseen and staffed by the Anglican Diocese of Armidale.

For sure! We often have people checking out Jesus and Christianity by coming along to a Sunday service, and we are always planning and praying that what we do together is helpful for those who aren’t yet Christians as well as those who are. Please come along! And if you have any questions or would like to have a follow-up chat, please reach out – one of our friendly team members would love to help you explore more.

We want church to be accessible to all. To help make your visit more comfortable we would love to hear from you, so we can ensure your needs are met.
We are currently holding our 9:30AM Morning Service in the Belshaw Lecture Theatre, which is immediately opposite our carpark. We have accessible parking spots in our carpark, with more accessible spots immediately alongside the Lecture Theatre. Flat access with no steps is available for this Theatre. The theatre is largely tiered seating, with one row of ground-level seating available for those in wheelchairs or those who cannot navigate steps. An accessible toilet is available adjacent to the Theatre.
Our 6:30PM Evening Service is held in our Chapel Building, which is fully wheelchair accessible and includes an accessible toilet.
Planning is well underway for a new larger Church Building, which will also be fully wheelchair accessible.
We'd love to see you!
We work hard to make sure your first experience with us is a good one.
