St. Mark Village
Mission & Legacy
Our Mission: To enrich the lives of the residents we serve by creating an environment that fulfills their every need—body, mind, and spirit.
In 1977, inspired by his parishioners Pastor James H. Fresh began to dream about a community of people, vibrant in their mature years, social, busy, and full of life. He envisioned a place where residents and team members embraced a wellness approach to body, mind, and spirit. A family that supported and lifted each other up in times of need.
