Kick-Off Sunday & Parish Picnic
Please join us for St. Martin’s Kick-Off Sunday, September 18th. Kickoff Sunday offers us all a chance to reconnect and get involved in the formational offerings at St. Martin’s. We invite your whole family to join us to experience our loving approach to spiritual education.
Parish Picnic
There will be a Parish Picnic (burgers, hot dogs provided; potluck for everything else) right after the 10:30 am mass. Sign Up here to bring something to share.
Blessing of Students and Teachers
Students and teachers are invited to bring their school backpacks and/or briefcases for a special blessing at the conclusion of the mass.
Youth Ministry (7th Grade – 12th Grade)
Our goal is to provide our youth with a positive Christian Education experience that will help them build their own church community. Please join us kick-off Sunday where our youth groups can enjoy some fun team building activities outside after the 10:30 am mass!
The Joint St. Martin’s/St. John’s Youth Group will have its first meeting at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Somerville on Sept 18 at 5 PM.
Sunday School (Preschool – 6th Grade)
In person Sunday School returns to Saint Martin’s! Sunday School occurs during Saint Martin’s Sunday 10:30am service. Please join at 10:15 us in the large conference room upstairs on the 18th.
As a reminder, Saint Martin’s uses Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) for our children’s education and has 3 levels. CGS is an approach to religious education that is rooted in the Bible, the liturgy of the Church and the education principles of Maria Montessori. It really focuses on the joy in the relationship with God and the young child.
