St. Mark's Parish was formed in 1909 and the current church was dedicated in 1924. The Community Center operated the first indoor pool in the city.
In 1973, a horrible fire resulted in the deaths of twenty-five people in a gay bar, the Upstairs Lounge. No other church in New Orleans would hold a memorial service for the victims, but St. Mark’s stepped forward, and opened its doors following the Methodist principles of “Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors.”
