Meet our Clergy and Staff

REV. ROB MARK

Rev. Robert J. Mark (he/him/his) serves as Lead Pastor and Team Leader of Church of the Covenant here in the heart of downtown Boston. With degrees in Divinity and Geology, Rob is passionate about spirituality, people, equity and climate justice. Growing up in the Quinobequin (settler's renamed: Charles) River watershed, Rob is familiar with this part of the world, and after stints living and working in Illinois, DC, New Hampshire and South Africa, Rob is deeply grateful to have been given the gift to come back to this Boston area to attend seminary at in Boston University in 2002. Rob--who was first ordained in the PCUSA as a minister in 2006, and was first called to join this community here at Covenant in 2012--continues to be thrilled to see the Spirit thrive in this place.
