Shepherd's voice
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Peace of Christ!
Service is an act of love and it brings the divine presence within our-selves and shares the joy of it with others. The first step to serve God, let us start with prayer. Prayer is the great way to please and glorify God. Instead of focusing on bad things let us keep our focus on the Lord. Let us not waste time but spend time in prayer. If your family does not pray together, why not make a start now? I understand very well that it is difficult for families to pray together because some family members may not want to pray or because some are coming and going and it is difficult to find a time when all or most of the family are together. Make a defi-nite decision at this time of world instability to pray together as a family every day. Choose a room where there will be no distractions, make a set time for the prayer and begin. Even if you are the only person in your family who wants to pray, continue to pray on your own. Maybe in time others may join you. With great joy, we welcome Fr. Louis Guardiola from the Fathers of Mer-cy for our Parish Mission from this Sunday until Tuesday. Kindly keep Fr. Louis Guardiola in your prayers, so that God may guide our Parish to do His will. I thank and appreciate our Stewardship Committee and all who help with the Parish Mission. May Our Patron St. Martin of Tours pray for us and protect us all! To be the witness for His love,
Fr. Jegan
Fellowship Breakfast This Sunday September 22nd
Our Knight of Columbus cooks, dishwashers and drink masters are back from their summer break and ready to kick off our monthly fellowship breakfast! If you are new to St. Martin’s and not sure what the excitement is all about, stop by Sexton Hall after the 8:00am or 10:30am Mass on Sunday Septem-ber 22 and join other parishioners for a variety of breakfast treats, coffee, juice and Fellowship. there is no charge, but free will donations are always accepted to help cover the cost. We look forward to seeing you!
Starting in October, the breakfasts will resume to be on the 2nd Sunday of every month.
RCIA Classes: Start date has been changed to October
Looking for peace? Needing hope? Thirsting for God? Do you know someone not baptized or baptized in a non-Catholic Chris-tian tradition, who is thirsting for what it means to become Catholic? Do you know someone already Catholic but has not yet received Confirma-tion & Communion? They may be thirsting too! The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a place to ask questions and seek under-standing.
Or if you are already a confirmed Catholic but want to brush up on your faith, you are more than welcome to sit in on the classes!
To begin a journey toward becoming Catholic, please contact
Father Jegan [email protected] or Deacon Tim [email protected]

We need intercessors and Prayer Warriors for the Project Ra-chel Post-Abortive Healing Ministry!
Do you have a heart for prayer? Is one of your spiritual gifts, intercessory prayer? if so, we need you! As with any ministry in the church that is providing opportunities for healing, reconciliation with God, and evangelizing God's love and mercy, the evil one does what he can to prevent it. We need prayer warriors to protect this ministry and to be vessels of grace for the men and women who are in most need of God's love, mercy, and healing! *Contact Brie Anne Varick [email protected] for more infor-mation
Summer’s end brings with it nostalgia for carefree days, long nights, lazy weekend afternoons, reunions with families, and summer road trips. But in our parishes, autumn brings a burst of new life that makes September feel almost like spring. Why? For the Christian steward, fall brings a renewed sense of commitment. Literally, many of us make our commitment of time and resources to our parish during September or soon after. This is the time when we reexamine and reconfirm our stewardship. If you found yourself away from your parish this summer – either through neglect or through travel and visits to other parishes – now is the time to get reacquainted. Our parish is our primary faith community, where we built relationships based on our shared values and sacramental life, and September is a wonderful way to come “home” to that community.
Some things which will draw you closer to your faith community during September:
Our Fellowship breakfast is this Sunday, spend time with people you may not have seen due to summer travels, and “meet and greet” any newcomers you spot.
Consider a new ministry this year. Think of something that will reinvigorate you, provide the greatest service, bring out your best talents, and help you to meet more of your fellow parishioners.
Find out what adult faith formation classes or presentations are offered for the fall, and commit to at least one.. Our Parish Mis-sion starts this Sunday and Deacon Tim will soon be presenting
“A Biblical Walk through the Mass”
Take inventory of your financial giving. Did you sometimes neglect the parish offertory during the summer months? Find out if your parish has online giving, or automatic withdrawal, so that your year-round stewardship helps provide the parish with a stable income.
Make Sunday Mass your top weekend priority, ahead of sports, school activities, or other temptations!
