We are called to be disciples of Jesus Christ, ministering to all, thereby proclaiming God's love. We strive, both individually and together, to experience a deeper relationship with God, and in changing times, to extend Christ's unchanging ministry to one another, our community, our nation, and the world.
St. Martin's Mission Statement
Becoming Beloved Community Team
Jesus laid out the most basic Christian teaching of all when the young man asked him, “Which commandment in the law in the greatest?” He told him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets” (Matthew 22:36-40).
St. Martin’s “Becoming Beloved Community” Team (formerly known as The Justice League) oversees our parish justice work. This name reflects St. Martin’s as part of the Episcopal Church’s long-term commitment to helping create a world where all the people see themselves and others as beloved children of God. We have three working groups, Truth, Justice, and Healing, and we invite you prayers and participation.
