All those who participated in the Confirmation class last fall and any others who would like to be confirmed, received, or reaffirm your confirmation vows are invited to join Mark and Ernie on February 26th after the 11am service. This will be a continuation of the process started in the fall with a specific emphasis on the question: “What is Confirmation, and why should I do it?” As was our custom in the fall, we will offer a salad bar for lunch. Everyone is invited to bring items to share. Ernie and Mark will provide the lettuce, plates, utensils, and dressings.

Campaign to Rebuild All Saints Cathedral in Haiti

webmaster — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 20:10:30 +0000

The Church of St. Martin is currently raising funds for the rebuilding of All Saints Cathedral in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. We have already collected over $2500 in donations. You may view the poster in the narthex, which offers a visual display of the number of “bricks” that have been purchased. If you would like to donate a brick, they are $10 each. As stated at the Annual Meeting, the cathedral needs as much rebar as brick. $30 will buy a piece of rebar. Please make out checks to St. Martin with the notation in the memo box: “Rebuild the Church in Haiti.”
